Ann- I know this is  late, but my life has been pretty busy since 2023  - finished up 17 years with Boeing in Seattle and SoCal… finally accepting retirement at the end of 2022.

I have so many wonderful memories of our times in Jax !  You and Jay remain as  best friends and forever, even when changes happen. 

I retired and then returned to our home state of Ohio .  Been an  eventful 13 month, but we are  almost finished with the 9 month transition  (6 Pods of household stuff from SoCal, with the last one last one being delivered to NE Ohio pthe end of this week!!! 

Where are you now… would love at least corresponding with you - sounds like you went forward  with a good family after the  last time we saw you!  

I am remarried  after one devoice and one  wife passing away … must be my personality or something!  

Please give me a shout back  if you can.  I always enjoyed our times together and was very surprised to see Jay’s Obituary in a recent squadron communication .  I truly love you guys  as a couple and that will never leave my heart … 

Looking forward to your reply…,
