The last 50 years have been good to me. I met my husband, Tom, 50 years ago, in 1960. Our meeting place was in West Hempstead . I married young after deciding not to attend college, had 3 children (1 girl, 2 boys) before I was 24 and had the opportunity to grow up with them and our 5 grandchildren (1 girl, 4 boys).

I was mostly a stay at home Mom (A New Term) until the youngest was around 12. Then the part time jobs began until I finally settled in working with my husband in his dental laboratory with many job titles: secretary, bookkeeper, etc. This continued until I decided to retire.

Tom and I presently live out on the beautiful North Fork of Long Island in Southold. In the winter, we are snowbirds and go to Punta Gorda in Florida for a few months.

I really enjoy reading and playing computer games. Most recently, working on the reunion had brought back many fond memories of friends and happy times!
