Past Jobs After holding a secretarial job while I completed my BA, I then worked for NYS Office of Mental Retardation and Dev.

Other Activities Since retirement in 2001, I have worked with the Mohawk and Hudson River Humane Society as a cat foster and adoption volunteer.  Last year, I fostered and placed 45+ kittens and cats into (good, I hope!) homes

Favorite Teacher(s):

I went to Greenwich CS Freshman year.  While there, my two favorite teachers were Mrs. Wilbur and Mrs. Kent, both from Cambridge.  At Cambridge CS, Mr. Wilbur, for home room and science (who tried to convince me that I had a functioning brain beneath the flakiness), and Mrs. Hudson, who encouraged me to "do more".
Memories: I feel I should still be apologizing to Cliff Walrath for dropping the screwdriver on his head from atop a ladder while working on the stage set for our class play.  Fondly recall walking down N Park St to visit with Mike in the popcorn wagon and his popcorn with the extra "butter".  Also, the cherry cokes at the LeGrys fountain and Alice Dennis' great egg salad sandwiches. Then there were the convivial gatherings atop Colfax--how did Mr. O'Connor always learn of them??? And Mr. Wilbur's science field trip there, with the notorious apple fight.
