I missed the last reunion due to some personal issues but hope to make this one. I have 3 grown children, 3 grown grandchildren and 2 small grandchildren, plus I have 5 great grandchildren. For being an only child, my family has really multiplied!

I married Phillip Williams (class of 1955) in 1960. We lived in Springfield, Riddle Hill, Virden, Petersburg, Joliet and moved to Coal City in 1971. I worked various clerical jobs until Phil died in 1981. I then attended college and became a Registered Nurse. I remarried in 1984. Bob Sorensen was a native of Kenosha, Wisconsin. I divorced him in 2003 and he died in 2005. I retired from the Open Heart Stepdown Unit of Provena St. Joseph Medical Center - Joliet, Illinois - in October 2007.

My oldest daughter, Vicky, who is also an RN, lives with me and we LOVE to travel. Our most recent trip was an Alaskan Cruise with my other daughter, Susan, and our good friend, Rose Libben.
