Today's Featured Biography

Deborah (Debbie) Provo Gurnard

WOW, I can't believe it has been 50 years!! I loved my school days and all the friends that I had growing up here in the Wenatchee Valley. They all have truly helped to shape me and make me the person that I am today. I can't wait to see many of them at our 50th class reunion and will miss those that are unable to attend.

I married Bob Dorey just out of High School and we were married until 1977. We had 2 wonderful children, Shannon Dorey and Jeff Dorey. My children truly are the light of my life!!

In 1981 I married my soulmate and best friend, Don Gurnard. We have been blessed with 5 Grandchildren and 1 Great Grandchild. Our Grandchildren make our life complete and we are so very proud of each of them! Don and I will celebrate 37 wonderful and adventurous years of marriage on 8-8-18.

I worked for Safeway for 10 years. In June of 1985 I went to work for Eagle Transfer Company. I worked for Eagle for 32 years. I am very proud to have worked for such a wonderful company and have the career that I had. I really enjoyed my years as General Manager for this company until I retired in 2017.

Don and I both keep very busy as we are both very involved with our community. We both belong to the Wenatchee Central Lions Club and we are also members of the Wenatchee Applarians. The Applarians are dedicated to supporting the Washington State Apple Blossom Festival. We travel throughout the Pacific Northwest and Canada being Ambassadors for our community. I have served on the Apple Blossom Festival board and executive board on 3 different terms. In 2016 I had the honor and privilege to be The Washington State Apple Blossom Director General. What an awesome experience!! I have also served on the NCW Foundation for Youth board.

Don and I enjoy our family, traveling, RVing and golfing. We have made many wonderful trips to Mexico and Hawaii. We also traveled to Japan on one of the Masawa Sister City trips representing our Wenatchee Valley.

Last year in August of 2017 my good friend and classmate Bonnie Torgerson Fortner and I took off on a journey and walked 500 miles from France to Spain on the Camino de Santiago. This was the trip of a lifetime for the 2 of us!! I will always hold this trip near and dear to my heart. Our husbands joined us at the end of our walk and then the 4 of us enjoyed more of Spain and Portugal. Don and I ended our trip in France.

I'm looking forward to seeing many of my old friends at our class reunion and also making some new friends!!
