Greetings to all from Sharon Faulconer Dinsmore (Class of 73). I have lived in
Seattle, Washington for the last 11 years with my husband, David Dinsmore ( MSU and Lambda Chi Alum '72) .
Being a transplant to the Pacific Northwest has been quite a "cultural shock" for this southerner who formerly lived
in North Carolina. I have two children: a daughter, Jennifer, who has been married for four years and lives in
Binghamton, New York and a son, David Scott, who lives in Nashville, TN with his wife of three years. Jen and her husband,
Joe, are expecting our first grandchild at the end of January--can't wait!! After teaching for 15 years, then substitute
teaching and working as a receptionist , I am retired and enjoy being able to travel with David in his work.
We have been blessed in our life together, and will be celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary on Dec. 1st. We are
fortunate to still be in good health and are motorcycle and travel enthusiasts. ( Included picture is from our two day
trip over the Cascade Mountains of western Washington.)
I really enjoyed catching up on everyone's latest info in the last newsletter. I am a "scrapbooker"
and would love to have photos from those years if anyone has any to share.
David, Sharon, Joe, Jennifer, David Scott and his wife

I
was a band director for 14 years and then we started moving around the country for my husband's job in '86 so I was pretty
much a stay-at-home mom except for a few teaching stints in Chicago and Dallas. After my divorce in 1996, I became
a substitue teacher and also worked as a recruiter for market research (focus groups). Then, when building my home
in Podunk, Texas (seriously, it is!), in 2005, I stumbled into my current position - sales assistant for the builder.
Actually, I'm only about 25 miles from Dallas, so it isn't all that bad.
Kiddos are 28, 26, and 19 - two girls
and then the boy that daddy always wanted. Rob is a freshman at Ohio University. Lauren, the eldest, graduated
from North Carolina State University and Lindsay, from University of Texas at Austin.
