Betty Young Wyant

1955 -8th Grade Graduation

 

I graduated in 1959 and had a job waiting in Lubbock . Madra Irons, Linda Bumpus and I lived together until they both married. I lived there until '64 ( a swingin' single) and Louise Evans and Peggy Grant talked me into moving to Ft. Worth .

In early '65 I married and moved to Albuquerque , NM , where our first child was born; we moved to the Denver area several years later, where I still currently reside. Between '71 and '76 I had three children; Kelly is now 38 and is married to Chris and they have a son who just turned three, Trevor. Matthew is 36 and married to Sharon and they have an 11-yr-old daughter, Nikita, who Matthew has officially adopted as his own. Kari is 31 and married to Joe – no children yet but we all wait expectantly!

After 13 years working with the same non-profit organization, I have partially retired and work 3 days a week. I live in Thornton , Colorado , a northern suburb of Denver . I enjoy an active social life and love spending time with family.
