Marital status: Married
Children: 4
Occupation: Deceased
Comment: After graduating from Del Valle, I attended Brigham Young Univrersity. I later married and had 4 children-2 boys and 2 girls. I was able to stay home with the children while they were young. Later I went back to work part time and did insurance processing. The job was flexible and allowed me to travel frequently on business with my husband. We also enjoyed taking the children to see this beautiful country. We have some great memories. I no longer work and the only traveling I truly enjoy are the trips that include visiting children and grandchildren. We recently enjoyed being all together at Newport Beach. There were 19 of us!

Marital status: Married
Children: 4
Occupation: Retired technical writer / translator
Comment: After dropping out of Berkeley I went to Norway (the plan was for a year), but I took up with one of the native girls, and the rest is (still ongoing) history. Worked as a welder and farm machine mechanic, and eventually discovered I was better at technical translation and technical writing. Paid a lot better, too!



Raised four children along the way, and the grandchildren are finally starting to appear.



After retiring last year people ask me how I like retirement. But all I can say is I don’t know yet. I’m too busy to figure it out. When it comes to retirement I suspect I may have missed the point…



We’ll see if reconnecting with my roots will help get me grounded

Occupation: retired teacher
Comment: "Time flies when you're enjoying yourself" seems to ring true for us!  My husband and I have been blessed with 3 sons, a daughter, and 8 grandchildren.  We've loved raising our children in Walnut Creek, and being involved in church, school and neighborhood activities.

Family plans preclude me from attending our reunion this summer, but I send my best wishes to you all!

Comment:   The attached photo is of my husband, Bob, and me watching the Oscars on our wedding night in 2007. Being I did not know what to write about myself, please read the bio of me written by Bob on my art website: ellenkent.net. It sums up what I have done other than being a clinical psychologist.



 



As an update to the information on the website is the happenings of my three sons.





Damon (1975) is now retired!  He and his girlfriend, Delia, live in Marina del Rey with no children YET!  I am still optomistic.

Bryan (1979) is the executive chef at Milt's BBQ for the Perplexed in Chicago.  The restaurant has been featured in American Ways Magazine and The New York Times.  It was named #8 of the Top Ten Restaurants in Chicago.  He and his wife, Sarah, live in Chicago with two daughters.

Max (1981) does "something." None of us really know what it is other than studying Torah.  He never asks for money, so all is ok.  He and his wife, Malky, live in Jerusalem, Israel with their four children (two boys and two girls, AND COUNTING.  They seem to be on the two year plan.  Go figure.

Bob has a son, Derek (1978),  a children book author ("The Scary School"  series) and a daughter, Jacqueline (1981).  Jacqueline and her husand, Greg, have a son.





Suffice to say, the children are into major procreation.  So far (between the two of us) there are seven grandchildren, ages  six and under.  I am aiming for eighteen, figuring Max will congtribute ten with the other four children contributing the rest.
