Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Mary Shierk Herman


Coe College, B.A., 1965
NIU, M.S.Ed, 1977
Taught French & Spanish, 1967-1969
AT&T/Lucent 1973-2001
Licensed minister 2003

I retired from "formal" work in 2001 and have remained active in ministry and caring for grandchildren. The four grandchildren range in age from 14 down to 2, and I find them a continual source of joy. Mostly I am grateful for the opportunities provided by each new day. In this process of life I have learned the great value of family and friends, and look forward with anticipation to our next class reunion.
