I married a Brickie baseball guy, Joe McCullough Class of 1977. We married in 1979 and just when the grandparents stopped asking when we intended to start a family, we began our family in 1984 with the birth of our daughter Ashley. We were then blessed with 3 sons and another daughter and the grandparents were saying "all right all ready! Besides raising the "big Family" I graduated from the College of Court Reporting. We started working on the Big Farmhouse on Linda Street and have been busy ever since. I enjoy reading, and gardening, antique shopping. I also started coaching cheerleading about 16 years ago for something to do with my girls. What started out as just for fun, has turned into a real love of working with kids. I am now a certified cheer coach. I am on the District Cheerleading Board for Northern Indiana Pop Warner Little Scholars which oversees the training and certification of coaches in all 23 towns in Northern Indiana which have pop warner programs. That includes over 1500 cheerleaders! And I am also the Varsity Cheer Coach at Hobart High.

Once a month I get together with a group of girls to pay Bunco. The cool part is we are all graduates of the Class of 1978! There are twelve of us. A few of us even started kinderarten together at Liberty School! We each share different memories of the time we first met each other, and of course different stories of things that we did or that happened to us while attending school in Hobart. We have truely been friends "forever" and have tons of pictures of our times together.
