The Woods' Family

My daughter Susan lives in Newberg, Oregon and works in computer technology. Her son Chris and friend Amy live in Manhattan, New York. Chris is in business marketing and builds web sites and ads.

My daughter Cathy and her husband Jerry live in Lincoln City, Oregon. Cathy manages a state liquor store and Jerry is a trucker and dock manager. Their son James is in the Navy in the Subs, stationed in Hawaii. Their younger son Nathan is in the 5th grade.

My daughter Cindy and her husband Brent live nearby in Gillette, Wyoming. Cindy is a hair dresser and has her own shop. Her husband Brent is an electrician at Black Thunder Coal Company. Their son Alex is in third grade and daughter Shannon is 4 years old.

My husband Don retired in 1990 from Amax Coal. He then went to work in the timber and on a ranch for a bit then went to work fulltime again at L & H Welding here in Gillette.

I was a department manager at KMart until last spring when an accident disabled me and I chose to retire. Don is planning to retire in October of this year, again. We hope to do some traveling and enjoying our family and home. See you in August.
