Moved to Montreal after school, lived in N.D.G. until 1991, when I got tired of the B.S. politics and packed my bags and moved to Ottawa. I have been working a postal outlet in Ottawa for the last 6 years. Would love to hear from anyone I knew in school or from Boucherville.

My husband Rick Girvan (from St. Hubert) and I (from Boucherville) have been married for 26 years and live just outside of Calgary on an acreage. We have a son Jeff that is 24 years old and lives in Calgary and a daughter Lindsey 17 years old living at home that is finishing her grade 12 this year. I was able to stay home and raise our children while Rick's been working for Siemens for 28 years. I went back to school to be a travel agent and do that part time. We love Calgary and get to visit Montreal every year. It would be great to hear from any one who remembers myself or Rick from high school.I remember alot of you.

Everything is going well with me. I'm single again a father of one. I've had full custody of my son Pierce who is now nine (D.O.B. 08/12/1991) since he was two. Working in automotive sales and leasing at a major G.M. dealer in Vancouver but have been involved in a variety of different ventures over the years. I'd love to hear from anyone who wants to write back from any year. I've also put my info on the class of '82 website that Scott Patterson runs. Until I hear from individuals I'm just going to give a generic greeting. Hello everyone!!!!!

After RVR I spent the required 2 years at Champlain in order to receive my DEC, then moved to Halifax to attend Dalhousie University. Following time spent in Halifax, Toronto, and Moncton I graduated in 1999 from Dal with my BComm Co-op and moved to Ottawa with my boyfriend Ashley. I'm still in Ottawa working for a Health Science company, MDS Nordion, in the division
that manufactures Radiation Therapy Machines for Cancer Treatment. Right now most of my free time is being used in rehearsals for a local community theatre group. I get back to Montreal and St. Hilaire every so often to visit my Sisters and Dad.

Well I survived yet another alien abduction, they are definitely trying my patience with their endless probing and testing. Trying to cope with my spontaneous psychokinetic attacks, not getting anywhere with trying to control them although they are always fun in a packed bus or metro! Been tree planting all summer in the northern wastes of Ontario and B.C. Learned that I really am just a smart monkey in a funny costume, just like all the rest of you. Plan on imparting that to those damn aliens the next abduction, maybe then they'll realize I'm not really all that interesting and they'll leave me alone. E-mail me if you have anything constructive to say, heck just e-mail me, these days I appreciate any form of communication...
