I retired in 2019 after 45 years of health insurance claims adjusting. That was the year we had our 50th Reunion party in Germantown Hills, IL. We have 3 sons and 1 daughter (who is a twin of the youngest son), and we have 7 grandchildren. My infant deliveries in 1977, 1981 & 1984 were all very quick and easy, thank God. In 1974, two years after our wedding year, I joined the Catholic Church, because my husband was a cradle Catholic, and I had been going to church with him and with his family when we visited them in Chicago Heights. We moved to Metamora in 1995, and we sent our children to St. Mary's School. We've been members of that church ever since, and I've been the organist and cantor, singing and playing at once, for nearly 30 years. I'm the only organist now, because the primary organist passed away last year at age 94. There is also a piano player for masses, and a younger woman who plays clavinova. Making this beautiful music is a blessing! I would like to see if we want to have another reunion sometime before the 60 years arrives! It would be good, once the weather becomes comfortable, for all of us to have another party.Blessings to all:Amen
