Mom followed dad on his many job transfers (he was known as "the gypsy") to Poughkeepsie, NY; Warwick, RI; Rochester, NY; Buffalo, NY ; Birmingham Ala: and finally in 1991 they retired to Venice FL.

Mom worked for Singer Sewing Company in Rome, NY & Poughkeepsie, NY. Then the family moved to RI and she worked for Singer Sewing Co. in Providence, Cranston and Warwick. She taught sewing at the stores.

Mom and Dad traveled the world. They loved to ski and played golf for many years. They had a wonderful retirement together, playing cards and they were in a group of social ball room dancers. We took many wonderful cruises with them on Holland America.
