Northern
Lights are spectacular...if you're out in the bush (not called woods) you
actually hear the Lights sing!!
Married
for 31 years. Husband, Art, a French Canadian/Scottish. Lived in Northwest
Territories for 23 years. From Pine Point to Yellowknife. Moved to
Hay River last year. Worked
for NT government for 20 years. Two daughters both married. One has 3
children
and the other has 1 child. Husband is Hay River Community Municipal Enforcement
Officer. After she worked for government for 20 years, she
now have has own business
providing Office Management and Bookkeeping services to small businesses.
Husband
and her involved in the Hay River Speedway Association. They own a modified
stock car and husband drives it. Marge is the secretary/treasurer
of the association.
Marge
is against the split up of the Northwest Territories. She lives in the Western
half. Marge is also against the split of Quebec from Canada. This would
end Canada. The Western provinces would became part of the States
because the States would try to take them
over. Marge feels there is less corruption in Canada than in the States now.
Marge was awared a NY
scholarship
Loved
art but hated Mr. Williams the Art Teacher. Interior Design was borrrrrring.
She wanted to paint and draw people.
Stopped
painting in HS but picked it up again after marriage. In grade school and
junior high had a number of her
drawings entered into the NY State Art
Expedition
Favorite
subject to paint is Canadian and American Rockies.
When first married, Marge
and Art lived in Vestal for a year. They moved to Canada in Spring of
1970 when their youngest daughter was 3 months old.
Marge
is on page 68 of the yearbook, on the far side of the trampoline, next to the
guy. Was really into gymnastics back then.
Always
loved bookkeeping and retailing and was fond of Mr. Daniels. She didn't have
the right courses to get into Broome tech to take accounting, but he
went to bat for her. She regrets she got such poor guidance from
her elementary school days.
Remembers
Miss Longo, who was both her 4th grade teacher and one of her high school teachers!
Since I take most
of the pictures in the family, I don't have anything more recent then
that. However, I don't think I've
change too much, my hair is a little
longer is all, still very
little grey (knock on wood).
(Marge
emailed a picture of her grandson and her at Disneyland in 1998).
I'm
not into participating in sports much these days, getting to old to keep up
with the youngsters. In the winter I
used to play volleyball (it doesn't matter
here if you're short) and
bowled
I now
do a lot of arts and crafts and knitting in the winter, more my speed. I like to knit while watching TV, that way I
don't feel too guilty about watching
some inane program.
In
the summer I use to play mixed slo-pitch (a form of softball) until I hurt my
back.
I went to all the senior dances,
but mainly with guys from my church who were from Endicott. (I know, I know ....'traitor')

"I did have a nice
visit with Marge at the reunion....she's a real sweet gal...and I do believe
she received the award for traveling the farthest" (Marge must have been
in Yellowknife at the time?)
