Comment: Hello to All!  I am very excited to visit with all my friends from High School Days.  I graduated from Makato State College in 1974 with a degree in Dental Hygiene.  I then spent the next 33 years working for 6 wonderful dentists in the Twin Cities area.

UPDATE!!  2019...I remet Tim Burns at our 40th Reunion.  I was living in Alabama at the time, but moved back to Minnesota in 2012.  In 2013 we went on a first date, and 5 years later in 2018 we married.  I am a very happy person with this change in my Life.  Between us, we have 4 grown children and spouses.  And best of all, we have 8 funny, busy, intelligent wonderful grandchildren. I retired from Hygiene in 2016.  Tim is still working at the main downtown Minneapolis Post Office.  We are going on our first Snowbird trip to Alabama in February. Looking forward to seeing all of you!  WOW, 50 years since we all walked the halls of good old St. Louis Park High School.

Comment:

This is a great website. Thanks to the reunion committee for all of their hard work and creativity.



Forty years ago I was preparing to go to the U of M and I graduated six years later with degrees in child psych, social welfare and a teaching certification. I worked for a few years in child development, got married, and then returned to the U of M for graduate school in Industrial Relations (HR and labor relations). Following grad school, my son was born, and after years of working as a HR manager and consultant, and trying to juggle family and career, I was fortunate to be able to leave the corporate world and become a stay-at-home mom. That was the best job ever!



Recently my son graduated from St. Olaf College and my husband and I are thrilled to have him back home. I currently work with a friend in catering and also with my brother for an inner city youth leadership foundation. Life is good. I am so looking forward to seeing my classmates at the reunion.
