I've been following my best friend and husband (King Smith) around the country for 46 years. My most important job and accomplishment was the raising of three children who grew up to be wonderful people that we love to be around. I also worked alongside my husband in several family owned businesses, but most recently, in eighteen years in full time church ministry. I led worship, taught women and kids, and pretty much whatever needed to be done. It will be so fun to reconnect with you all.

After graduating, I went to the University of Idaho where I ran Cross Country and Track. Following college, I got my teaching job at Brentwood Elementary School in the Mead School District where I taught grades 2-6. In that time, I completed a Masters Degree from Whitworth University. I taught for 42 years and retired 3 years ago. I have been married for 44 years (this August) and have 2 grandchildren. Two years ago, we moved to the Bitterroot Valley in Montana (where my wife was raised). I enjoy playing golf, hiking, and walking for recreation.

Only worked 3 jobs after graduating from the UW. Spent a year and a half at Hanford (programming on an Apple IIe computer). Then spent 6 years back in Spokane working at a small firm creating Auto Rating software for Independent Insurance Agents in WA and ID. Finally moved to Redmond, WA and spent 33 years at Safeco Life (which got sold and became Symetra, based in Bellevue). Eventually moved from programming to becoming a software test engineer. I tested our company's website. Retired 1-1/2 years ago.

Retired after 42 years from Bank of America. Now love going to the beach, and our lake cabin outside of Spokane. Enjoy playing pickle ball, reading, traveling and dinners with friends. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion!

I recently lost my best friend after 38 wonderful years of marriage. Our only grandchild just graduated from high school (making me feel old). Since graduating from UW, I've had three careers. I was a banker for 10 years; then was accountant/office manager for my husband's business for 20 years. I retired two years ago after 14 years as a bank & financial institutions examiner for the State of Utah. We retired in Twin Falls, Idaho, where I enjoy walking and being walked by our dog, catching up on the reading I didn't do during my working years, and making quilts for charity. Still deciding whether I'll stay here or return to Seattle or Salt Lake, both places where we have lived, or return to Spokane, or maybe try out Boise. So many choices! I'm looking forward to seeing my classmates after all these years, and really appreciate the people who have done so much work to organize this reunion.

Comment:
I have lived in Alaska since 1980. My husband, Howard, and I have two grown children, one of whom lives here with her husband and child. The other one lives in Northern California. I love to travel to warmer places (i.e. Mexico and Europe) in the winter . My favorite sport to play is pickleball. I love to garden and play with my 4 year old grandson. I am an avid Minnesota Vikings (through marriage) fan(atic) and a major baseball fan as well. Unfortunately, my twin brother, Richard, passed away unexpectedly in April 2021 and since the only reunions I have been to have always been with Richard, this one will definitely be bittersweet.
