The Penn State Alumni AssociationWhat’s been happening: I have followed my dream to travel the world. I married Alan whom I met on the 1959 choir tour and lived in Guinea, Cameroon, Libya, Singapore, Scotland, India and London for 24 years. I returned to Philadelphia in 1984, worked as a legal secretary, travel agent, real estate agent, and display sales advertising representative. After retirement I ran an after-school program at one of the branches of the Free Library of Philadelphia. My 2 daughters live abroad, one in Paris and is married with one child, and the other presently lives in Jerusalem with her husband and 3 children. Apart from traveling to visit them I have been to Peru, Costa Rica, Morocco, Egypt, Jordan, China, Cambodia and Ghana. Throughout the years I have continued to paint, am active in my church, FUMCOG, and have woven a comfortable and full life here in the Germantown section of the city. I most recently went to New New Orleans to help rebuild a house, and the inauguration in Washington. After double knee replacement I will be on the move again. Not a bad life! |
