Ted and I are very active in our church with women's and men's ministries. We host a men's Bible study at our home very Monday evening as well as several church events throughout the year.

We have been married for Forty years and have lived at our current home for Thirty-Nine years.

6-28-15 update
Ted and I are still at our home of the past 46 years. Still lots of projects to add new or repair old. Dropped out of all activities except for church, family and friends which keeps us very busy. Our daughter passed away three years ago this May with heart failure. The three boys and their families are all doing great. We have added another great granddaughter to our family and another one is expected later this year. Love those grandkids and great grandkids.
We always have an open door and lots of company coming and going. So enjoy all the love and support we get and can give to others. Since my brother Dick moved from Kearney we don't know when we might get back to visit with other relatives. If you are ever in Sacramento I would love to visit with you. Cell (916) 712-8112

update to 2018 Ted and I celebrated 50 years of marriage in May. We have 11 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. We have lived in "this old house" for 49 years now.

School Story:

I will always remember the enjoyment I had in playing piano for the school chorus group as well as singing in the Sextet. I enjoyed all of the instructors during my school years as well as the many students I was friends with.
