In 1980 I moved to London, England, where I continued to work in the international educational broadcasting field. For more on my current situation, see the Guest Book.

November 22, 1942 Retired Health Care Administrator Widowed
After graduation, I never strayed far from the greater Milwaukee area.  I attended UW-Madison for 2 years, but found no particular major.  I decided to follow in my older sister's footsteps & attend nursing school.  I applied & was accepted @ Milwaukee County General Hospital School of Nursing.  I started there in the fall of '63 & graduated in '66.  I stayed on as a staff nurse & went on to a variety of positions including head nurse on the Cardiothoracic unit, Information Systems Nurse Coordinator, Director of Nursing Critical Care & lastly, Associate Hospital Administrator Ambulatory Care.  In the early '80s, I decided to go back to school.  I finished my bachelors degree in '84 & my masters in '86, both @ Cardinal Stritch University.  In the early '90s, efforts began to close the medical complex, which by then was called Doyne Hospital.  Over a period of years, Froedtert Hospital & the Medical College of Wisconsin took over parts & in late 1995, Milwaukee County closed the old hospital.  I took the early retirement offer, but after some consulting work, vacationing & resting, I decided this wasn't for me yet.  Long term care had never entered my mind as a career option, but I was offered & accepted the Director of Nursing position @ Franciscan Villa in South Milwaukee.  This was one of the most challenging yet rewarding times of my professional life - hated all the regulations, but loved the residents & staff.  In 2004, I retired "again" - this time for good.  
My husband is a retired meat cutter.  We've lived in his childhood home in the Walker's Point area of Milwaukee for over 35 years.  In my younger days, I played on softball teams & golfed, but my knees have gotten the best of me.  We love the Packers, Badgers & Brewers.  My husband still golfs all the time & I have picked up a couple hobbies along the way - genealogy (family trees are a constant work in progress) & collecting antique fishing lures.  I know it sounds weird, but they really are little works of art.  You might find me hanging out @ auctions, yard sales or on ebay.  Last, but not least, we have a 3 y/o chocolate lab (Buck) that keeps us hopping. My husband trains him & I am the chief cheerleader as Buck runs in AKC hunt tests.  He is now a titled Junior Hunter w/hopefully more titles to come.
Can't believe its been almost 50 years!

I still swim regularly and have averaged over 200 miles/year for the past 19 years.  Took up painting (acrylics) and am always "working" on something.  Do some hunting and occasional fishing- nothing serious.

Looking forward to seeing  my classmates after a rewarding 50 years.  I've been blessed.

Wow! The journey continues. What fun to be on the committee and get in touch with people or attempt to locate them.

I'm still working for a sugar broker and actually enjoy it. My husband Jim is retired and enjoying his free time.

We have 2 girls-Darcey and Brian who live in Waukesha and Kari and Frank who live in Winchester, Virginia.  They also have our only grandson Brendan who will soon be 2 yrs. old. Great finally being a grandma but difficult due to distance between us.

Hope to reconnect with many old friends in August.
Till later, Bonnie

Hi All - Loved the music.   First Class Reunion I will be missing and wouldn't you know it would be the 50th!!   We have out of state visitors coming that week. 

We have 2 sons: First son and wife live in Wichita, KS and they have a son (7) and daughter (5).   Our second son and wife live in DePere (a little closer in driving distance!) and they have 2 sons (6 and 3).  We do a lot of visiting the grandchildren and really enjoy it.

Dale and I also do a lot of traveling in our retirement years and loving it.  We enjoy cruises, all inclusive resorts and driving trips without any real destination - if we see something we want to spend time at we just stop and stay a few days.  Needless to say we put a lot of miles on and I usually have to see a chiropractor when I get home!!

Hi to All and will miss you this year.

Never give up!!!
