I have 3 married children & 5 grandchildren. My husband, Leo, is a P.C.S. Engineer at Miles Inc. I have been employed with the City of Baytown for 25 years as a Deputy Clerk & Administrator assistant at Municipal Court.
2004 Update: Since the last reunion things haven’t changed too much. Walton and I have been married (in May 04) 47 years. Still live in Baytown and have many good friends. We have loved to travel and have been on buses, trains, planes, tours and several cruises. We have been everywhere I always wanted to go and more!
I’ve done things I never dreamed of doing like: Riding the rapids in a raft down the Snake River in Wyo.-Riding in a glider plane over the Rocky Mtns. In Colo.-Riding in a helicopter to the top of glaciers in Alaska and riding in a seaplane and landing on a lake high up in the mountains in Alaska. I rode a cable car to one of the highest mountain peaks in Switzerland and nearly froze. We were in N.Y. City in 2000 and went up to the tourist level of the W.T.C. (104th floor). It was a spectacular view. I’m so glad we went there. I’ll never forget it.
Home is still the best place to be! Being with friends, playing Bridge and busy with activities at Memorial Baptist church. God has blessed me my whole life-ever though there has been some pain along the way! I’ve been blessed with a sweet husband, 2 wonderful children (boy & girl) and 6 precious grand children (all teenagers now). WOW!
Thanks to everyone who has worked on these reunions! Great Work!
I retired from the City of Baytown after 30 years. I was privileged to have worked with four Judges during my career with Municipal Court. My husband, Leo, retired from Bayer Corporation as an Engineer. We lived in Baytown until we retired and relocated to Crosby. We currently live in Newport. We enjoy fishing, swimming, traveling and spending time with our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
After graduation from R.E. Lee the Lions Club scholarship sent me to Lee College. Ardith McKee, Lee class of 1955, married me in 1957 and we had two children, Roy III (Tracy) and Mary Beth. While at Texas A&M the WTAW 5:30 AM disk jockey slot was mine and after graduation sold advertising in addition to the “on the air” position. For a while the Univac Division of Remington Rand was my thing and then the office and data processing manager for Mechanics Uniform Supply in Houston. In April 1961 I joined the Allstate Insurance Company.
While employed with Allstate Ardith, the children and I lived in Houston, Atlanta, Indianapolis, Detroit, Chicago, Atlanta again and Chicago again. In the 1969 school year the children attended school in three states.
In December 1992 early retirement beckoned and we moved from Illinois back to Atlanta. After retirement from my “real job” I accepted employment January 1993 as business manager of the Atlanta Opera. Ardith passed away in February 1993.
A year with the opera was enough and the position as development director of the Brandon Hall School in Dunwoody, Georgia became available where Judy Weiland came into my life. She accepted my proposal of marriage and in December 1994 we joined families. We have four children and eight grandchildren, all living in the Atlanta area.
In 1998 Judy and I semi-retired again and we moved to
After graduation I went to the University of Texas at Austin for two years, where I met my husband, Mort. We became engaged and I transferred to SMU, to be near Mort who was from Dallas. I
Mort and I have been married for 42 years. We have 3 wonderful children. Jeffrey, 40, Karen, 38, and Linda, 35. We have 8 fantastic grandchildren, 7 boys and 1 girl. All of my children, as well as my brother Lewis and sister, Betty, live and Houston and my brother, Jerry is not far away. He still lives in our old house at 510 North Whiting in Goose Creek! We are all very close and my family becomes increasingly important to me as the years go by.
2004 Update: My life is much the same as it was five years ago when I updated my information. My family is still the most important part of my life and I am fortunate to have them all very close. My three children and eight grandchildren are in the Houston area. My grandchildren range from one grandson who is in second grade up to three grandsons who are in college. I have only one granddaughter who we especially enjoy as she attends a school for gifted students near our home and can walk to our house. My sister, Betty, and brother, Lewis, live in Houston. My brother, Jerry, is still in Baytown. We get together often. My husband is retired and I retired 13 years ago, but still do Speech Therapy two days a week at a school near my home. We continue to enjoy traveling and hope the world will be a safe place so that as long as our good health continues we can continue to see the world.
My life has been good since graduation. I received a good education; married the right person (48th anniversary in June) had interesting work, wonderful children and grandchildren, and good health. It has been a good fifty years and I hope that I will be updating this again in five years!’!
