After graduating from high school and working at the gin during the summer, I went to San Marcos my freshman year. Although, I loved San Marcos, I decided to transfer to Texas A&I. After three years there, I graduated with a degree in education in 1963.
That same year, Curtis and I married. We lived in Hebbronville where he was teaching Ag.
After a couple of years we moved back to the valley and lived in the Harlingen, Rio Hondo area until 1968 when we moved to Raymondville. He sold insurance and I continued to teach.
We were blessed with two big sweet boys. Sheldon was born in 1967 and Staton was born in 1970. Sheldon graduated from Texas A&I and works for Zachry in San Antonio. He and his wife Bunkie have one daughter, Shelbie. She is a freshman at Alamo Heights high school. She loves sports and I tell her she is a good athlete like her Papa Curtis. That pleases her.
Staton graduated from Texas A&M and works for Clinical Pathology Lab in Houston. He and his wife Amber live in Katy. They have two sons Oren (9), Evan (4) and a daughter, Parker who is 7.
These grandchildren are my pride and joy. I love to spend time with them whenever I can.
Curtis and I had a wonderful life with many blessings during our 44 years of marriage until 2007, when he passed away suddenly from a massive heart attack.
My plans are to continue to live here in Raymondville and work in real estate and property management until the Good Lord shows me to do something else.
I am looking forward to seeing you and visiting with each of you at our reunion.
