                  moved to Miami. I lived in South Beach from 1986 until 1998 when I moved to Atlanta for a

                  change of pace. I have been lucky to have had the opprotunity to travel quite a bit with my

                  work (and some vacations) Currently I have visited 23 countries with Asia and Austrailia

                 still on my short list of places to go. My partner and I are currently building a new

                 contemporary house in Atlanta and are looking forward to moving into that in January. 

                 Please feel free to take a look ar my website to see some of what I have been up to in my

                 career. If anyone is in the Atlanta area feel free to get in touch, I would love to hear from

                 you.  I didn't know about the 25 reunion so i didn't have a chance to see anyone there.

                 After graduating from VSU in 1985 I spent 8 years teaching elementary school.  Married a

                 wonderful soldier and lived many places.  Upon his return from Desert Storm, we settled in

                  his hometown in Pennsylvania.  A small, but great little town one half hour from Pittsbugh

                  and 45 minutes from Morgantown WV.  This has been a blessing since our twin

                 daughters are attending college there (one at The University of Pittsburgh the other at The

                 University of West Virginia.)  Our third daughter is a middle school student with her heart

                 set on attending Penn State.  My husband and I, along with terrific business partners, built

                  three assisted living centers throughout southwestern PA, and "reschooled" to become

                 administrators.  While we enjoyed being self-employed it was quite stressful being in

                 charge of three buildings and commuting between them.    After 9/11 my husband was

                 asked to return to active duty.  He is stationed at the moment in Ft. Benning GA, but

                 spends his time in The Middle East.  He assures us that he is not in harms way, but we

                 still pray each night.  I recently returned to teaching and am presently the high school

                 German teacher at a wonderful "country" school about 25 miles from downtown

                 Pittsburgh.  I have kept in touch with Dennis Pennington and Kathy Leggett Eldridge, but

                 unfortunately have lost touch with Toi Pedrick.  If anyone finds their way to the "Steel

                 City", just call, we have lots of room.  God Bless!

                 I joined the U.S. Army after High School where I learned how to trouble shoot radio

                 equipment.  This three-year term was completed in Lawton, Oklahoma.  Having earned

                 money for college while in the military, I graduated with my Bachelors Degree from

                 Valdosta State University.  The next five years were spent teaching students at Valdosta

                 High School (VHS).  I never thought I could do it.  Work in Wildcat territory, but it was

                 easy when I got used to having a steady income.  I left VHS to join the ranks of Valdosta

                 Technical College.  I began as a part-time instructor and in less than three months I was

                 the first full-time adult education instructor in Lakeland, Georgia.  I assisted students in

                 studying for the High School Exit Exam and GED.  In less than a year, I was offered the

                 position of Adult Literacy Director where I remained for ten years.  During those ten years I

                  met the man of my dreams Mr. Charles Mathis. We married and added two children to

                 the two he already had when we met. We lost both our oldest daughter Keisha and our

                 baby boy T.J.  We have two beautiful children remaining Chaniece Mathis 10 and Minister

                 Dedrick Mathis 30.  Even though things were going wonderfully, I always wanted to get a

                 Masters Degree.  I was unable to fill this need as the director of a busy program so I

                 decided to return to the classroom.  I am still with Valdosta Technical College, but I am

                 back in Lakeland, Georgia holding Masters Degree in Post Secondary Education.  All I

                 can say is “Isn't God good.”

                 made my own site and maintain it.  It's just awesome how great it's going with my

                 business. Thanks for reading this- I'd love to hear from you- have a great day, and Long live
