About Me |
I lived in Welch as a young child. Until the third grade I lived at 270 Hobart street. I have many wonderful memories of growing up there and all of the dear neighbors.
I was the only girl on the street so I had all boys for buddies. Some of the ones I remember most fondly and that were my best buds were Travis Meredith and Tullio Ramella.
A few of the other great folks I remember as being good friends were, the Banks family, The Stockners, the Peraldos, the Sextons, the Lathams, The Hunts, the Walkers,the Hatmakers, the Mitchells, the Liontakis family, the Greens, the St. Clairs, the Gross family, etc.
We moved from Welch many years ago and I now live in northeast Ohio and have for over fifty years. Still those sweet memories our family shared in Welch are dear to my heart. When I think of home I still think of Welch .
I lived in Vero Beach Florida after leaving Welch for several years. I enjoyed those years alot and still have close friends there and lots of family. One dear friend is Judy Mitchell who I still keep in touch with and have seen in recent years.
I moved to Lakewood Ohio after leaving Florida. It is a suburb of Cleveland. I started school in 6th grade there and graduated from LHS. What wonderful years those were to grow up in. Hey we lived the original "Happy Days."
There were a group of gals that hung around since 6th grade. We have remained tight until this day. There were eight original and two more added in High school. We still see each other after over fifty years of friendship. We get together as we did in school, take trips, share our lives. We realize how very lucky we are to have such a special group of friends. Believe me we really could write a book!!
I have been married forty four years and have a son and daughter. Also our five grandsons are the joy of our lives.
I am planning a trip back to Welch soon as I have not been back since childhood. Just yearning to take a little trip down memory lane......
** took the trip to Welch and am ever so glad I did, Yes it had changed but it was wonderful to walk aroudn my old home town and relive the memories. Yes you can go home again. |

YOU CAN'T CHANGE THE PAST'
BUT YOU CAN RUIN A PERFECTLY GOOD PRESENT
BY WORRYING ABOUT THE FUTURE |
Rules I live by:
RESPECT FIRST YOURSELF AND THEN OTHERS.
WHAT YOU GIVE COMES BACK TEN FOLD
KINDESS COST US NOTHING BUT CAN BE A FORTUNE TO ONE IN NEED
WORDS KEEP THEM SOFT AND SWEET AS YOU MAY HAVE TO EAT THEM ONE DAY.
