Where have you lived, and where do you live now?

From Ann Arbor to Olympia Washington (beautiful country)

Then Mineral Wells Texas (Helicopter training center)

Our next stop was Fort Gordon Georgia ( wonderfully historic)

Now it was Worms Germany ( touring the castles throughout the

country and enjoying the fests and the gorgeous Alps)

Back to Olympia and then to Skandia MI

Gwinn MI, and now Crivitz, WI.

Are you retired? If so, what are you doing in retirement?

We are busy enjoying our Harley. I believe there are few back roads

we haven't been on. I am the corresponding secretary for the local

woman's club. For fun I enjoy the red hatters. Most mornings you will

find me walking my Criviz route. In the afternoon I am in one of my 5

gardens. Later my nose will be in a good who- done- it. At night playing

five crowns with my ladies.

Bill and I enjoy an adventure to keep things interesting.

Please tell us about your family, spouse/s, children,

grandchildren, etc.

Bill Gustin and I have been married for 27 years. He has always made

me laugh. We enjoy each other.

Laura Gilvary is my first born. She is as beautiful inside as out, known

as little Laura Lovely. Know as a mother of two active boys and wife of

John, she is busy. Professionally she is an administrator for

Intercoastal Bank. Five blocks away lives Melissa, she lights up a room

with her smile. As a mother to a teenager (Nathan) and proud adoption

mom to 3 dogs. Professionally she is the business account specialist

for Intercoastal Bank. I am so proud of a my family.

What interests/activities do you find most satisfying?

Watching my family grow is by far the most satisfying. I also love when

a grant that I have submitted does good for our community. When

another Habitat House is finished, small things like watching the

gardens grow, seeing friends, and just living each day.

Do you have any memories from High School that you would like

to share?

I remember how talented my classmates were. Carol and Lynette we

just had fun. Peter and I went bowling and I tried hard not to beat him,

but still beat him by 2 pins. The football games and dances, the party

at Bimbos Pizzeria. Building the float in our backyard, Ms. Morton's

homeroom, and much more.. AAHS isn't another Mr. Lucky it is just

plain good.

What else would you like us to know about?

I am excited to see everybody.
