I grew up in a very small town, and youngest of three.  I have two brothers who are older, however, one passed away at the age of 3 months.  I was raised in a very straightlaced home and religion and chores was basically all I knew.  I had no problem with that because God and His teachings mean the world to me.  I graduated from high school in 1967 and went to work as a clerk typist at R.H.Donnelly's.  I married in 1970 and quit work in July of 1971 to give birth to my daughter.  I did not work again until 1976 after the birth of my son in July of 1975.  My parents taught me to be a hard worker and to be loyal to my employers.  This is what I have done my whole life.  In 1998 I divorced and moved to Terre Haute.  I have found many new friends and also a wonderful new husband, who means the world to me.  I worked at Vermillion county hospital and only quit when I became upset over seeing so many useless deaths in young people, newborn to 21.  I went to work for chiropractors and felt relatvely safe that this would not be an issue in this job.  I enjoy the one on one contact with patients, as this is the majority of work that I have done.  I am hoping and praying that I can find a job that will continue in the people person that I have become.  I had no idea that I would be losing my job at this stage of the game.  I have several more years that I can offer the workforce.
