After taking the summer off I went to work at the Granite School District Administrative Offices in the fall of 1961. I worked in the Media Center booking and distributing films and filmstrips district wide. I also did typing projects for several other supervisors--including our very own Miss Bosh. I worked there until June 1964 when I got married and moved to Ponca City, Oklahoma.
While living in Oklahoma I was trained by Travelers Insurance Group in Tulsa. I then went to work for the largest insurance company in Oklahoma rating and typing homeowners and auto insurance policies. I worked for them until moving back to Murray, Utah in 1967. I divorced my cheating husband shortly after that. I then worked for a mortgage company a short time and then went back to work at the Media Center. While working at the Media Center I was hired to hand letter large posters and signs used at KUED during broadcast of the in-service television programs. I also worked a couple of nights a week as a waitress just to make ends meet. I worked at the Media Center until 1970.
In 1968 on Christmas Eve I met my present husband and true love, Mark. We married in December of 1969, and the first of three sons arrived the following year. We will celebrate our 42nd wedding anniversary this year. Mark has been retired from Delta Airlines for three years. We have three sons by birth and a son and daughter who chose me for their mother. We also have five grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
While raising my children I worked at home on special typing projects for Granite School District. I also designed and sewed baby quilts and christening dresses for Mormon Handicraft as well as painting and selling a variety of decorative ceramic items. Many of the subsequent years I spent caring for my mother. I am on the Board of Directors of the Utah Iris Society and take pride in my more than 600 individual iris plants. I won UIS Best Specimen Queen of Show in 2009. This year I won Best Specimen again as well as 2nd Runner-up. I began collecting cookbooks in high school and my collection now numbers well over 2000. When I have time I still enjoy doing crafts and painting ceramics.

"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."
