| Memories Before High School (neighborhood, elementary & jr high, etc.): |
|
The neighborhood where I grew up has changed so much that it looks like a new place. I still live in the same house where I grew up, but it too has changed. I remodeled the house and added new heating and air conditioning. Have city water and sewer now instead of well water as we had all through my school years. I went to Victory School from elementary to junior high and graduated.

Special School Memories: |
|
My favorite memory of Ashley was riding the school bus and talking with my friends. |
|
Since School...: |
|
I went to Ashley High School one year before I married Neil Hiffstetler and had my two oldest boys. We divorced and three years later I married Leon Childers. We were married a few years and I've been on my own since. I raised all five of my children by myself, and I'm proud of all of them. I retired in 1999 and received my GED the same year. I lack three semesters to earn my Associate's Degree.
I have a few health issues, but I still can get out and go. |
