2013

I am in the Class of 1976 but didn’t graduate from HHS.  My Dad was in the Army at Redstone and we moved to Texas in December 1974 and then to Washington State where I graduated from Clover Park High in 1976.  I went to Seattle University to study journalism but Rob and I married in September 1978.  Rob was a 1Lt and we spent the next 25 years “following the drum” wherever the Army sent us – Kansas, Hawaii, Panama and Michigan to name a few. 

 In Panama we adopted our two oldest daughters – MaryKate is married to Gabe, also a soldier stationed at Ft. Hood, TX (kinda a big circle hmmm?) and has two little boys, Tony is 2 and Alex is 1.  Our middle daughter Carly has a 3 year old daughter Ava.  Our third miracle is Maggie, our birth daughter who just turned 16 and is going into her junior year at Lake Orion High School (where we live about 30 miles north of Detroit).

I eventually finished college (2007) very close to home at Oakland University with a General Studies bachelor and a History minor.  I am now working for a local substance abuse prevention non-profit as Project Coordinator and love it.  Rob has moved to the dark side as a Department of the Army civilian at the Tank Automotive Command in Warren, MI.
