Married in '65, moved to Cleveland, then to Midland, Michigan then on to Ann Arbor. Moved back to the Dayton are in 1976 and have been here ever since. Larry and I retired in 2001 and have really been enjoying retirement. We have four grandchildren: Michelle, Tabitha, Anna and Charlie.

Nov 24--Life has been a little rocky for us. I had breast cancer in 2007, surgery, chemo and radiation and now have good health. In September, Larry was diagnosed with prostate cancer so he was scheduled to have robotic surgery Nov 17. However, on the 2nd I fell and severely dislocated and fractured my shoulder. After surgery I came home loaded with pain pills, etc but am healing. Timing was terrible because I can't drive. So with the grace and help of our children and terrific friends, we have gotten through this part. We are both healing now and are looking forward to getting back to "normal". We are trying to view these as speed bumps on the road to retirement. Hopefully, we have had our last. I so enjoy keeping up with everyone.

The Woods was and still is a place a peace and renewal. My first time there was my senior high school year and it is still with me. The Woods helped me become who I am today.

Almost too many to list. Probably the inventive ways some had of avoiding 4 Stars.
