City:Williamsville State/Prov.:NY Occupation:Retired Marital Status:Married No. of Children:3 Grandchildren:3 What have you been doing for the past 50 years?:I retired after 30 years of teaching and 38 years of marriage. Jim said I couldn't retire from that. Thought it was a good idea. In an effort to keep up with my 4 athletic brothers, I took up golfing years ago. I work constantly at the game and am proud to say I can beat them today. ( sometimes!!! and from those wimpy women's tees). I do travel a lot -especially to North Carolina - where my 3 daughters live. I am involved with March of Dimes and Habitat for Humanity. The workers were amazed when they saw that I could pound in nails. I guess they knew nothing about my "tomboyish" childhood days. (You can ask "cuz" Tom McCarthy about that.) I have a diet and exercise routine and use that hair coloring stuff in an effort to keep up with those younger people. It is fun trying. I love to dance, sing out loud and act wild and crazy at times. It only takes 2 drinks - my limit! Well, I've got to run. We are on our way to Augusta for the Masters. Am looking forward to seeing you all at the reunion. Another chance for me to act wild and crazy. Comments:Thanks to the committee for all their hard work. Also, where are the rest of our classmates. Come on, you know who you are. Fill us in, please!!!!

City:Carmel Valley State/Prov.:CA Marital Status:Married No. of Children:3 What have you been doing for the past 50 years?:In my 20's, after a brief marriage and the birth of my first son, Michael, I was a single mom, Gas Light Girl, singer, and model.

My 30's and early 40's were spent in business, working my way up to “Manager of Consultant and Industry Relations” for ROLM, an IBM company and then to Executive Director of the Society of Telecommunications Consultants.

I met my husband while doing a workshop at Esalen Institute in Big Sur (he was the leader). We (David and our two sons, Zac and Ryan) have been together since 1988.

In my 50’s, I worked with a number of High Tech companies as a consultant and tried my hand at Real Estate. I loved fitting buyers with the perfect property, but am too much a home-body to do what you have to do to find clients.

Now, I have “Zelda’s Picks”, a business for today’s woman who is concerned about sustainability and recycling. I find gently worn, stylish clothing and accessories from recognizable designers and stores and sell them affordably. I sanitize, wash, polish, and do whatever necessary so my customers can feel good putting them on and wearing them.
