Profiles and Bios

 
If you are a member of the 1962 graduating class, or would have been if you had stayed at Wheat Ridge High, we would really like you to create a profile and tell something about yourself. You can always update your profile with current information. Your address, phone number and email address are not visible to anyone other than yourself and the website administrator. You can contact other Classmates through the 'Send This Person a Message' link below their profile.

This page has a 'Where Are They Now' button which, when clicked, displays a map of the cities and states where registered classmates live. You might be living near someone and not know it!

Check out the 'Sort' and 'Search' functions. The more classmates that register, the more handy these features will become.

Your registration helps attract other classmates to the site. The effectiveness of the website is a direct correlation to the number of classmates who register. Registering also enables you to post to the Message Board.

Comment: Hello everyone,

I have been retired for 5 years from Miller-Coors.  I had a wonderful husband for almost 50 years.  He passed away 4 years ago.



I have 3 grown sons and 4 granddaughters.  They are the joy of my life.  I miss Colorado a lot.  Mostly you miss your wonderful friends who help you during your time of need. 



I am a volunteer at the hospital and meeting lots of friends in Wisconsin.  I cannot make the reunion.  Just  want  everyone to have a great time.  I am there in spirit.   



Want to say thanks to Scott for all his hard work.

Comment: Upon graduation from Wheat Ridge, I attended Colorado State Univesity.  I was an independent on campus and in the Chi Omega Sorority.  College was a wonderful time.



During my junior year I married and had one daughter and we moved to Criag, Colorado.  I spent three years there as a rancher's wife and barrel racer before coming back to Colorado State University to finish my undergraduate degree as a single mom.  From there my life took on many new experiences.



I majored in business and received a teaching degree and an administrative certification.  I actually spent 24 years in education from teaching to Director of Secondary Curriculum for the Loveland School District.  During my time in education I went on to get a doctorate in administration (1991).  I spent seven years after retiring from the school district consulting for the state of Colorado education department.



I did have another career in between education

segments as I met and married my current husband in 1975 and he was in real estate.  I was in real estate from 1978  to 1991 as a sales agent and then moved to Broker of three offices in the Fort Collins and Loveland area.  I loved real estate, but not as much as education which is why I went back to it in 1991.



I was fortunate to have experiences all over the united states through real estate and education.  I am currently enjoying our four daughters.  My husband had three girls and then my one have made quite a family.  We now have five grandchildren.  Four boys and one girl.



I spend my time golfing in three leagues and bowling in three to four leagues.  Retirement is great.  I have leadership in the leagues which keeps me busy and technology literate.



So this is a short bio of a unique life and new experiences still coming.  And yes, of course there were bumps along the way, but who looks back.  It is too exciting going forward.
