School Story:

I was extremely heavy in school and now I am not, still happy and out going and most people do not remember me. I was married to Jerry Derrick for 27 years, he also was in the 1970 class. I'm in the yearbook of 1969 as I moved in my senior year. I walked with a limp as I had polio as a child, now I walk with the help of a walker, but nothing can take away my sunny smile, I am blessed!!

Comments:
