I married three times; had two kids from the first marriage of 17 years. My son flies for and runs a helicopter facility in Juneau, Alaska; great wife and daughter (8). My daughter has been married and divorced twice. She was a model internationally and now is a psychological counselor in LA., has two sons (17 and 16). My now husband of 23 years, Steve, had three Children, Son (Doctor), Daughter (Lawyer) and former pro tennis player (our Indian chief) who now sells jewelry for Cookie Lee. Brian O'Neill introduced us.

Career: I taught Psychology and English at Barnstable High School for seven years, then took a flyer selling Antiques, then real estate. Moved to Arizona did Commercial Real Estate as leasing hostess and then Marketing person. Tried residential with little success, did some free lance marketing and then returned to ten years as a counselor for drop-out prevention in the schools. Left that to teach English as a Second Language when Steve had five strokes. After his illness we retired in Taos, New Mexico where we had built a house prior to his difficulties. I have taught English every other year here for the past six years, and just did a five months stint in Phoenix for my old High school, Central. Had a change of weather and made a buck. We're back in Taos and looking forward to seeing you in September. Fondly, Bette
