Time for an update:
In 1979 I began my residential real estate career and closed the doors to Claymore Realty, Inc. in September of 2022. Happy to be no longer working in contracts; however, do miss the teaching of new and experienced licensees.
Retirement on the farm includes starting mowing season here in April. We are way behind in rain (8-15")in Illinois. The corn seed is in the shed waiting for the right time to plant. I look forward to working in my flower beds.
My activities include Mahomet-Seymour FFA Alumni & Supporters, Chapter FF PEO, Champaign Co. Farm Bureau Women's committee and Mahomet United Methodist Church to name a few.
So happy to have my family. Derek and Kami live in Heyworth. He is manager of Nichols Tillage Tools in Bloomington. Nicole and Doug are making a move to Green Bay, Wisconsin from Arcadia, IN. Doug is CEO of GLC Minerals. Colleen and Karl are in Mt. Zion. Karl is a design engineer for Caterpillar, Colleen is finishing her degree in Special Education and will teach middle school beginning in September. Derek has Taryn, Danielle and Dane. Nicole has Blake, Cole and Ashley. Colleen has Jacob, Lindsey, Nick and Lucas. And they are supporting various levels of institutions!!
The GRANDS: Blake, U of IL, Masters/Phd program. Jacob, graduated Iowa State U ('25) engineer/Caterpillar. Cole, graduating Purdue - on to Iowa State for MS/Phd. Taryn, Junior in Nursing, Wesleyan. Lindsey graduating Oklahoma State U, signed contract to teach Ag/FFA advisor in Teutopolis,IL. Danielle, finishing freshman yr. Iowa State U. Ashley, finishing freshman yr. Kansas State.

Happy Veteran's Day to each of you. We honor Lee and Bonnie for their service to our country along with all of our other classmates who served, and those who have passed. I enjoyed Tom Brokaw's The Greatest Generation, revealing how women's lives changed. I know everyone's life changed, but reading it as a woman it was an impressive change. May you all have a wonderful holiday season. Blessings. N

Life on the farm is great. We will be harvesting the corn crop soon. I'm having trouble with thistle in the hay fields, so will plant oats this fall and see if that helps.
Grandson, Nicholas, is in the Naval Academy! We are so proud of him and his determination to get accepted. Danielle will be attending the U of I starting in January, which puts Blake and her close by. Dane and Lucas are playing football this fall, so I am attending their games when possible. I am a fair weather grandmother when it comes to outdoor sports. Summary of my 10 grands: 2 gainfully employed, six in college and two in high school. As volunteering opportunities arise I continue to fill my calendar. I'm hearing from friends what fun their class reunions have been - sure wish we could pull one off.

Thank you so much for all you have done to keep us up to date. We missed you and Bonnie at the 75th Birthday Blast. It was great to see everyone there and re-connect.
Again, thanks.
