Within six months of graduating I married my high school sweetheart Bob Grimes (VHS '61). Bob transferred from VJC to Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, in Sept. ’63 where we lived for three years while he earned his BS in Metallurgical Engineering. After Bob's graduation in '66 we moved to Torrance, CA, where he went to work for National Supply Div. of Armco Steel, while I enjoyed homemaking and raising our two sons, Chris and Shane.
As a family we enjoyed camping, off-road motorcycling, and traveling in our motorhome. A highlight was a four-week trip to the East Coast in '77 visiting family and friends along the way. We especially enjoyed seeing Gettysburg, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Mt. Vernon, and Mystic Seaport. We also enjoyed our National Parks in California -- Yosemite and Sequoia among them -- as well as our State Parks, especially Morro Bay.
I was employed for a total of 31 years as a church worker, starting in 1972 as church secretary at St. Mark's Presbyterian Church in Lomita, CA. Until June 2006, I worked at Rolling Hills Covenant Church in Rolling Hills Estates, CA, serving in various roles -- Christian Education Secretary, Adult Ministries Secretary, Office Manager, and Communications and Calendar Coordinator.
After living in the South Bay for 40 years, Bob and I both retired in 2006 and moved to Big Bear Lake, CA, where we established our retirement home on property where we vacationed for 10 years. We've joined the Senior Citizen's Club and a small life group at Community Church-by-the-Lake. We're also interested in bird watching and wildflower walks. We're learning to garden at this 3700 ft. elevation. (I took a Master Composting Training class and may try my hand at worm composting!) We hope to join the Antique Car Club, when our '62 Morris Woody restoration is complete.
We are looking forward to a New England-Canada cruise in Sept. '07, to celebrate our retirement and 45 years of marriage. In the future we hope to do more traveling to see friends and family living in various places in the U.S. including our son Chris, wife Yvonne, and their two children Ethan (13) and Natalie (5) in No. Carolina. Fortunately, we don’t have far to travel to see son Shane, wife Jessica and granddaughter Taylor who live in Fullerton, CA.
We're anticipating our class reunion, Aug. 18, and hope to touch base with old friends we haven't seen for years. Hope to see you there!

"Just discovered your product today while trying to locate classmates ahead of our 50th reunion in 2020. The fact that you did this in a noncommercial manner in a world where everything has a price tag deserves recognition and respect, in my view.
Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
