I graduated from the 6th grade in Tacoma right before moving back to Illinois in 1960. I remember going shopping for my graduation clothes and was very excited to get something new!!
I graduated from the 8th grade in Wonder Lake, Illinois in 1962
I was confirmed from a Lutheran church in Wonder Lake, Illinois in 1962. My mom had a small party for my eighth grade graduation and confirmation on the same day. My grandma Munson and Aunt Hazel are standing with me.
I graduated from McHenry High School in Illinois in 1966. After the ceremony my Aunt Eloise had friends and family over for a small party. My friend Marlene is the girl I walked to see for my one fun time a week while living with Eloise. Jim Pitts was my first boyfriend. Our moms worked together at Modine manufacturing. The first time I met him our families all went to a museum in Chicago. We dated for a few years after that.
