| 8/30/2008: First and foremost – thanks to all the Service men and women from our graduating class! Just having come back from NYC and Ground Zero it means even more to me! Thanks to Janice and others for organizing this reunion. Thanks to Tina & John Sills for this great website! It has been wonderful reading about our classmates and what they have been doing for the past 30 years!! I am amazed at the many paths our classmates have traveled.
As for me, I will be married for 20 years on November 21 to my wonderful husband and friend, Mike. We have two great children, Leah age 17, entering her Senior Year at Oley Valley High School with plans to study Chinese/Asian Studies and Secondary Education at Colgate or University of Maryland or some other yet to be decided university. She is a dancer and a Girl Scout currently working on her Gold Award (i.e. correlates to the Boy Scouts Eagle Scout Award). Our son, Matthew is 13 and starting 8th grade. He is also a Scout but loves to swim, 12 months a year, and hopes to be the next Michael Phelps. His best stroke is Butterfly. He wears a size 13 shoe and is now 5’9”. I hope he keeps growing. He also plays an awesome Tenor Saxophone and the Native American flute. Can you tell I am proud? We also have a Border Collie named Molly (have you seen Babe?).
After graduating from Salisbury, I lived in PA and NY and then settled in Berks County, PA. I am sad to say (because 30 years have passed) – and at the same time proud to say (I love learning) that I am still going to school. I am working on my Masters Degree in Information Technology with a specialization in Project Management at the University of Maryland. I earned a BS in Business Administration from Albright College while working for a technology company based in Pennsylvania. I currently work for Siemens Medical, a global healthcare manufacturing company based out of Germany with US headquarters in Malvern, PA. I was on the management trail for 15 years and am now very happy working as a business requirements analyst for all our sales organization and US based manufacturing companies of medical equipment and software.
I look forward to seeing all of you at our reunion in November!
