Hello classmates!!! Have you all missed me???
We thought since the reunion was such a blast and it was nice to see everyone, having some fun in the sun would be just as fun.
I'm think

Since graduating from DHS in 1987, my life has been very busy with family, children, and the community. I went to UW-Platteville and received a BS in Elementary Education. I did my student teaching in Milwaukee to see if I would like living in a bigger city, and it didn’t take long to decide “NO”. I came back to Darlington and was a substitute teacher for a semester, and then Fr. Coyle called me and offered me the First Grade position at Holy Rosary. I taught there for 6 years, and then decided to move to Madison to be a live-in care provider for 2 disabled ladies. It was both an interesting and exhausting experience. After about 2 years, I decided I wanted to move back to Darlington and find a job that would let me be more involved in my nieces’ lives and with the community, so I decided to open a child care in my home. I rented a house for a few months, and then I bought a home in Darlington (by the Fairgrounds). I have been a Child Care Provider for over 8 years.
I truly enjoy being with my nieces, Cassie and Kelsey. I like watching them participate in basketball and other sports, attending their school programs, volunteering with them at community events, and just spending time with them. It is hard to believe that they are both in High School and will soon be off to college (too soon!!).
Through the years, I have become very involved in the community. I have been a Foster Parent to about 50 children from the Lafayette County area, which has been exciting, fun, overwhelming, at times sad, and busy. It is amazing what some children have to go through in their short lives, and it is also amazing what some children are able to overcome. Some of the community organizations/committees that I belong to are the Relay For Life Committee, Celebrate Our Children Coalition, Cinco de Mayo Committee, T.O.Y.S. (child care support group), and the American Legion Auxiliary (officer at local, county and district levels). I organize the Community Halloween Party, Easter Egg Hunt, and Letters to Santa.
I keep very busy, and I truly enjoy my life in Darlington!
Judi added the following statement herself (I probably would have used a different word than amazing.)
P.S. Judi is still as amazing today as she was in High School!! :)

Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
