Occupational status and background:
Even though I am retired, and have been so for many years, I am writer and researcher of history and
genealogy. Locally, I am a contributing writer with my column Looking Back for the online news outlets:
My Edmonds News and Lynnwood Today. In addition, I share the writing with other Snohomish County
historians for the Perspective on the Past columns which appears in Senior Focus, the quarterly
newspaper published by Senior Services of Snohomish County.
For several years I have worked with Dale Hoggins and the Edmonds Cemetery Board providing research
for special programs at Edmonds Memorial Cemetery. I have appeared in the Walk Back in Time event
as well as the Veterans Day programs.
Even though I live in Lynnwood, my heart always remains in Edmonds. I came to this area in 1933,
moving to downtown Edmonds in 1937. I attended Edmonds Grade School and graduated from Edmonds
High School. I raised my four children in Edmonds —they all graduated of Edmonds High School.
