My favorite memory was the Choralettes' trip to Washington DC to the Cherry Blossom Festival. It was so much fun singing with West Point Cadets and seeing Eisenhower's plane along with the snow that kept us there an extra day.
…My education continued from Lamar to Baylor where I got a BA in Education. After two years of teaching, then I went to SMU and got MA in Psychology and Counseling. I married Bob Stripling in 1962 and we have a daughter and a son living in Dallas. At age 50 and after teaching 20 years in Dallas, I went back to school so I could get a license in Counseling. Working with learning disabled children and their families has been such a joy and privilege for me. Bob and I have enjoyed traveling together. He is a graduate of St Johns’ School in Houston and attended Baylor also. Bob is a lawyer in Dallas before he retired and is now managing the family ranch near Corpus. Lamar was special in many ways, the teachers were excellent and really prepared us for college. Miss Hollingsworth was a great example. (Spring 2009 1)
