Comment: How to make a long story short... Met my first husband when I was quite young and married him at 19. Had 3 children together and then he decided he had other things he wanted to do. I raised my kids alone over the next 20 years. Kids are now adults raising their own children. I am now a grandma to 6 grandchildren! I finally met the love of my life and married him last year. We are very happily married. I enjoy watching him play hockey, camping with my family, hanging out with friends and working on running my first 5K. Life is good!

What have you been up to since high school?: After graduating from NIU, I was busy raising my two children who are now 26 & 28. I spent over 18 years working for Cardinal Health (formerly Baxter/Allegiance) until December \'09 when my position was eliminated. My position at Cardinal was what transferred me from the Gurnee/Waukegan area out here to the Columbus, OH area almost 12 years ago. Because I really enjoy living here I found another job here in Columbus working for the corporate headquarters of Safelite Autoglass. I left Safelite in June \'13 and then became a contractor at Honeywell Aerospace until early August \'15. I\'ve been working at Hikma Pharamaceuticals as a Buyer/Planner since Nov \'15. However, my greatest joy over the last couple of years was becoming a Grandma. My grandson, Colton, is now 6 and my granddaughter, Rylee is 4. I got married to my wonderful husband, Steve Ricci on 3/31/17. We are enjoying and tackling life\'s journey together with God\'s guidance. I look forward to see where God will take us. I love the longer warmer seasons and the shorter, less harsh winters here in Columbus, OH compared to back in Waukegan.
What are your current hobbies and interests?: Enjoy variations of swing dancing & some ballroom dancing, which I do several times per week.
