What would we be surprised to know about you?

Well, I've been married for 36 years to the same man, I have 5 grown children and 14 grandchildren.

Where was your favorite HS hangout?

The ROTC Shack. I was a sponser.

School Story:

My most memorable was being in Mr. Willingham's class, my senior year. He was auditioning for a part in the movie "The Last Picture Show" and everyday at lunch he would practice for about 4 of his students. It was a blast. We looked forward to it everyday. Then as soon as school was out, he went to Hollywood for his aaudition and got the part. I felt like we had won also, just being a part of his practice sessions. I have followed his career which was great until he passed away about four years ago. The screen lost an awesome actor and I lost a good friend. I always watch "Walker, Texas Ranger" reruns just to get to enjoy his great acting and his awesome humor. He is greatly missed.

Don't really have one other than "Isn't that cool?"

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I enjoy playing on my computer, doing God's work and most of all spending time with my children and grandbabies.

Comments:

Getting married, having babies, spending time with friends we went to school with and being a part of their lives, moving to the country, buying a home, being involved with our children growing up and being involved with their school days, seeing them get married and having our grandbabies. I guess just living life and taking it one day at a time.
