"I’ve been retired from JPL a long time now, since 1999. Things have really changed in the library system but I still have fond memories of the people I worked with and the services provided by the library, especially at the Beaches Branch where I spent 13 years. I was very lucky to work there.
"Since retirement, I have held two part-time jobs, one as
librarian for one year with Education America, a private college concentrating
in math and computer science, and another with FSCJ as an adjunct librarian at
the South Campus for about six years. These were both good experiences for the
most part and helped me stay somewhat current. Now I am just happily out of
date!
"Travel has been most rewarding, with trips to Egypt,
England, France, Italy, Canada and several visits to see our children living
in Oregon and Pennsylvania. Last year I
was so fortunate to be able to travel for 12 days in northeastern France and
Paris with my daughter Sarah. I still
hope to visit the Greek Islands.
"Most of my spare time these days is spent with my husband
Buck and granddaughter Parker, a six year old who attends Alimicani Elementary,
trying to stay fit with walking and “senior” exercise, volunteering at the
Beaches Branch Library and my church, reading and doing crossword puzzles. I also
enjoy attending the coffee series with the Jax Symphony. Not too exciting, but quite pleasant!"
