After high school, I got a job in Omaha and lived with my Aunt.  In December of 1962, Jary and I were married.  We lived in Tekamah for 25 years and then moved to Omaha in 1989 where we reside at this time.  We will celebrate our 50th anniversary this year.

I worked part time for the Green Lantern when the kids were little.  I later worked part time for Shamburgs Auto Store in Tekamah.  I then got a job in Omaha for a group of ophthalmologists.  A full time job opening came up in Tekamah for South Omaha Production Credit Association.  I worked there for almost 9 years until they downsized.  I then went to work for Elliott Aviation (an FBO) General Aviation at Eppley airfield in Omaha as service writer for the Avionics Department.  I worked for them for 19+ years.  I was offered early retirement in 2007 which I accepted and retired.

 

In the past, my hobbies have included Genealogy but recently my time is geared to grandkids and great-grand kids.  I also spend time helping Jary assist the older neighbors who are in their upper 80s.  We currently have a cat, Callie.

3.  How/where did you meet your spouse- Decatur High but I did not bushwack him as he stated in his questionaire.  I was much too quiet and shy!
