Our children and grandchildren:
Our children are all in the same place as before, and life goes on, even during the Coronavirus. We’re glad that we’re all safe and at least in the same country, now!
Tyler and Irene, Newport News, VA
In February, we drove from Mississippi to Virginia to see Ty graduate in The Apprentice School -- with Honors! We were very proud. He continues to work in the Engineering Department of Huntington-Ingalls Shipbuilding. His wife Irene enjoys her work in a public school as receptionist.
Lex, Los Angeles, CA
Lex still loves Los Angeles. During the Coronavirus lockdown, he and his roommates are all working from home, and getting to know one another! We finally got to visit him last year, and we enjoyed understanding the public transportation system, the distances, and the great people in his life. We even got to see where he practices bodybuilding and flying trapeze! In addition to his day job, Lex acted in “Shedding”, a film about a cat person. Literally -- a cat in a person’s body. He has appeared at several film festivals where the film was being featured.
Nate and Malaika, Jackson, MS
Nate got a new job in December as a salesman for a Toronto firm, and is doing well. His most recent client is Mountain Dew! Nate’s wife Malaika was Jackson’s Teacher of the Year last year, and her theater students have won various state and regional competitions. We’ve enjoyed attending several of her plays. Their kids are actors, too – in Mississippi’s professional theatre, New Stage.
Matt and Erin, Seattle, WA
Erin is now a full librarian, having completed her Masters. Matt continues his work at Apple, and is in his ideal position there. We loved going to visit them a year ago, seeing the beauty of the Seattle area.
