- (Know what separates North Dakota from the North Pole?? A
chain link Fence!Burr!!), another 5 years in South Dakota (Beautiful!!) and another
5 years in Missery--opps--Missouri. After that we had to opportunity to take an
early out, and decided we had seen enough of the world and settled in Covington, Virginia. We are in the Alleghany Mountains just north
of Roanoke. Covington is still a small
town and we've enjoyed raising our children here. I do get back to Valdosta on a regular
basis and see a few of my old friends. To all of my old classmates--Hello!! GO

[Spearman] Picture mblanton@guardianbankonline.com
I just celebrated 32 years
in banking and I love it. I retired
as CFO and HR Officer of Commercial Banking Company
in Valdosta, stayed home a couple of years and then answered a call to return
to banking as a loan officer and branch manager of Guardian Bank. I was married to John Thursby (class of 1974)
for ten years, married to Freddie Daniels for 13 years and
divorced for seven years. I love
class reunions! I met an old
classmate (didn't know
him in school), Jeff Blanton (class of 1975) and married him in July 2008. The
third time's a charm! He's the
best husband ever! I've had a house at Twin Lakes for 13 years and
he has a home in the country so we enjoy the best of both worlds. I never had children but
have some wonderful nieces and nephews.
I rode motorcycles during my divorced life
and I loved it. Met a lot of
fun and wonderful people and riding was something I never dreamed
I'd ever do. It was good to see
everyone at our reunion a couple of years ago.
Everyone seemed the same. Wish you all the very best!

After graduating I went
to VSC for a couple of years, had a thought to be a teacher like my mother, but realized the pay was not the greatest.
Took a couple of years off to find my 'footing', then decided
to get out of the south Georgia world, so I joined the Navy. After boot camp, I went to weather
school in the midwest for 6 months, and was shipped off to Bermuda for 2 years.
Darn the luck! There I played volleyball, softball and basketball,
though I was not nearly
as fast as in my younger days....you know the ole saying....the heart has the spirit, the
body just can't keep up! From
there I was stationed at Mayport, outside of Jacksonville
for the last 2 years, where I decided I would go back to school for
computer science, which
I did at night, and got my BS just after leaving the Navy in '87. Worked in Jacksonville
for a few more years, then took a job in Columbia, SC, which in turn sent me to Sidney,
Australia for about 3 months. Not
that I had a chance to see it...working too many hours in a day, I felt like the doughnut
man...."Time to make the doughnuts". From that job I went to Atlanta, where I lived
for the last few years, but am selling my house there
as I am now in the new england region of my company. I currently am a senior software consultant, have a wonderful
partner, and am having to 'learn' how to be a mommie, which for those of you who know
me, probably think that is no problem.
Hope all is well with you...take
care....Insane DeVane....*s*
