Now, the hard one. Tell us what we need to know. Give us 50 years in the space below:
Met Bruce when I was 21. Got engaged at 22. Built our first home while engaged. Moved after eight years with two children to Syracuse, NY, then after five years to Pennsylvania, then to Cincinnati, Ohio, onto Rochester, NY . Transferred to New Jersey after living in Hong Kong. NJ was our longest home stay. I retired from municipal government as an Assistant Tax Assessor (almost 15 years).
Finally, if I had to do it all over again, I would...
do it all over. I loved being in the International Corporate World of Business (in which I participated)
