Work history: I was a stay at home mom while the kids
were growing up. I went back to college and was certified to teach with
a master degree in Elementary Education when our youngest was in middle
school. I now teach third grade at Pikeville Elementary School.
When retired, plan to move to: I will retire when I
have my 30 years in at Bledsoe County. Will be 83 then, so will slow down
and sub. Pete tried retirement once, did not like it, and went back to
work. We love our beautiful valley with mountains all around us and have
no plans to leave this spot. They can scatter my ashes in the backyard
some day.
Hobbies: Gardening, Ebaying, Bluegrass, Grandkids
Have traveled to: Here and there around U.S. and Canada,
but would rather stay home.
Of interest to other classmates: The World's Largest
Yard Sale runs like through Pikeville every August. Y'all come!
Things I remember about Albion High School: Bob Holland
taking his watch apart and putting it back together almost every day in
Mr. Hawarney's English class. Many friends in
simplier, happy, times. We are the real Happy Days characters.
