Ken and I will be married 50 years this February 2010 we have 5 children 4 boys and
the last a girl. They all live out of town
and have finished college. We have 12 grandchildren ranging from 18 years old to
1 year old. I am still working as a customer service rep at Badge A Minit for 21 years now and still love my job. I enjoy
excersing and going to mass daily it is such a wonderful way to start my day. I had a melanoma back in 1987 so I do stay out of the sun and don't do much outside activity.
We have one son in Coto De Caza California which we try to visit ones a year, a son in
Bloomington Il, a son Willow Springs Il, a son in Chicago IL, and a daughter in North
Aurora IL. We are anxious to meet everyone again!!! I know the group organizers have worked very hard at getting us together and
I want them to know how much it is appreciated.
