It's hard to believe that 25 years have passed since we wore our light blue caps and gowns and left St. Mary's to embark on new adventures. We've gotten married and divorced, gained weight, earned degrees, lost weight, created new families, raised pets, worked inside and outside our homes, achieved success, traveled the world, stayed close to home, overcome obstacles, endured losses, strengthened our faith, served our country, made countless brownies for bake sales, driven in carpools, climbed the corporate ladder, started our own companies, pursued - and continue to pursue - dreams. Among us, we've done it all!
Here's our chance to catch up a little before we get to the reunion. Please take some time to tell us the highlights of your past 25 years. Where did you go on to school? What do you most enjoy doing now? Do you work outside the home? Where have you traveled? What is one thing you still dream of doing? What is your best memory of St. Mary's? We can't wait to hear from you!
Send us a current photo, too, if you can. Feel free to include a photo of you with your family. You are unable to edit information once you hit the submit button, so please review and add your “now” picture all at one time. Your information will be uploaded to the web the next day. As soon as your information is added, you will be able to send messages to others who’ve also added their info.

From Vicky: It is hard to believe that 25 years have gone by already (although I have noticed more and more gray hair each year). After SMA, I went to UW-Stevens Point for two years (not sure what I was studying there) and then transferred to UW-Milwaukee to get my bachelors in Accounting. My husband (Tom) and I will be married for 20 years this summer and we have two handsome boys. Kyle is 12 and Brandon is 8 (my pay back child). We spend most of our time attending the boys sporting events (either baseball, basketball or tackle football), which pretty much covers every season. We also enjoy camping, fishing and just hanging out with our good friends. Thanks to those of you who worked so hard on this great website!

From Carolyn: Greetings everyone! I also can’t believe it’s been 25 years since our graduation. Well, basically after high school I entered the workforce. Currently(since ‘91) I’m an Administrative Assistant at an engineering firm in New Berlin called HK Systems. I’ve travel a bit through the years: Hawaii, New Zealand, California, Charleston and most recently London England. I thought I was destine to live the single life but in 2002 I got married and now live happily in the East Side of Milwaukee. We have no kids but we do have one very spoiled cat. All in all life after SMA has been very, very good. Looking forward to the Friday night get together in July…peace!

From Lucy: The past 25 years has gone by too fast. It doesn't seem that long ago that we were in school, so I guess that means we are all still "young". After SMA I went on to College (Marymount in Kansas) and earned a BA degree in Communications, which started me on my career in computers. I have worked for companies such as the National Arbor Day Foundation, Goodyear and the Government before getting a job with Harley-Davidson. I have been with Harley for 8 years as a Systems Analyst and yes the 100th was great. I have been married and divorced but was blessed with a beautiful son named Cameron who is nine. We have a pug dog named Coco who loves to play. It will be nice to see everyone again.

From Kathy: Hi Everyone! Wow! 25 years....that can't be! I'm only 32!! :-) I have been very busy in those 25 years! I earned my BA from Alverno College and have been working for Sodexho (used to be Marriott) for the last 16 years. My career has taken me to Kalamazoo, Chicago, Milwaukee and Rochester MN. I am currently the Director of Dining Services at Charter House, a 400 bed CCRC affiliated with Mayo Clinic. I've been here 10 years and still enjoy my job. I finally found the man of my dreams and will be married two years on May 31. His name is Scott and I have three great stepkids with him. He works at Mayo Clinic as a Computer Hardware Rep. I also started my own business last summer, called Golden Dog Bakery. It is a lot of fun, we go to lots of dog shows and pet expos with our exhibit. I don't have a lot of free time anymore! I'm either working my day job or baking dog biscuits! We foster and rehome golden retrievers for Retrieve a Golden of MN, which is incredibly rewarding and fun. We've had a number of dogs, and are getting a new woofie this weekend. In addition to our occassional babies, we also have Shane and Rosie, our own goldens, and two kitties, Samcat the Fatcat and Lucy. I've had the good fortune to have the time and means to travel, mostly all over the Caribbean (with another trip to St. Lucia this fall!) and Costa Rica. It has been great fun reading this website and the bios posted so far! Everyone looks GREAT! (32!!) I look forward to reading more bios as we get closer to the Reunion! I am hoping we can make it to the reunion. We have some other committments for that weekend, but are working to reschedule them so we can come. I'd love to see everyone and browse the halls of SMA! I mostly want to put jingle bells on my shoes and run thru the tunnel watching for Coach... Hopefully...we'll see you in July!
