June 05, 1941 wcmkem@q.com Retired Elementary Teacher Married 4 2012-07-11 22:26:32
Spouse:  Bill
Children:  2 Sons & 2 Daughters
Grandchildren:  2 Grandsons & 4 Granddaughters
Activities/Hobbies:
Sewing, Quilting, Knitting, Traveling, Time with kids and grandkids
After graduating from Wa Hi, I attended Western Washington State College.  I met my husband, Bill, there, got married, and worked for a while in Seattle where we had our first daughter. We went back to college at Central where we had our second daughter and each graduated in education. We lived near Wapato for a couple of years where my husband taught and I student taught and commuted to finish my degree.
            We moved to Walla Walla in 1966 and have been here since, having two more children, (sons) and raising our family. Bill and I both taught in elementary schools here. We actually teamed for four years while at Blue Ridge. I taught kindergarten, first, third, fourth, and fifth grades over the years. I started teaching at Washington Elementary, then went to Jefferson, Blue Ridge and finished at Sharpstein. That was a lot of fun since I had gone to school there. I received my MA Ed. from WSU in 1979.  My favorite time during my teaching career was when we first opened Blue Ridge and integrated all subjects through the arts. We had wonderful, whole school units with music and drama performances and visual art projects to tie concepts together and make them meaningful. It was a great time.
            We have four children. Lisa is an elementary library media specialist at Vista Elementary in Kennewick. She is married to Ben Hill, and they live in Benton City where he is a teacher, coaches football and is head wrestling coach. Leslie is a middle school counselor at Desert Hills in Kennewick and is married to Fred Sievers, who works in equipment and supply procurement at CBC in Pasco. They have a daughter, Mikayla, age 13, and a son, Gavin, who is 9, and live in Richland. Eric is a computer specialist and systems analyst with Bank of America in Seattle. He is married to Kristin who is a stay- at-home mom and school volunteer. They have Madeline who is 10 and Danielle, who is 8, and live in Issaquah.   Kyle is the high school principal at Burbank, WA where he and his family live. He is married to Raynee, a social worker who works with juveniles. They are parents to Konnor, 14, and Kendal, 11. We have great times with all of our family.
            After our children were through school and on their own, we began to travel more. We have been to Mexico and Hawaii numerous times. We have driven to the east coast twice and traveled home via southern states. We have also driven through New England. Our first trip abroad was to Turkey. We have also gone to Spain, Portugal, and the British Isles. We took our first cruise last April, going to Grand Cayman Island, Cartagena, Colombia, through the Panama Canal, and several places in Mexico. It was an extremely interesting trip.
            My hobbies, in addition to traveling, are sewing, quilting, knitting, and spending time with our grandkids. I go to a lot of kid movies. I have made all of my grandchildren’s baptismal gowns using heirloom sewing techniques. I enjoy making quilts and quilted decorative items for my home and my children. I also enjoy making decorative clothing using a variety of embroidery, quilting, and knitting techniques.
            In 2006 I was diagnosed with three auto-immune diseases: Hashimoto's disease, Celiac disease (which was life changing – no more wheat!!!,) and polymyositis. I have been on high doses of medications that have resulted in my having a hip replacement in January of this year. I am looking forward to being able to go for long walks again.  We also hope to do some more traveling since I will be more able to get around and enjoy trips.
            I wish everyone good health and happiness in the next fifty years!

I graduated from EWU in the spring of 1964. While attending Eastern I met my wife, Bonnie. We were married that June and moved to Walla Walla where we both began our teaching careers.
