Sandy and Pat's Page

Sandy went to San Diego State University where she earned her B.A. and got her teaching credential in 1969. She has retired from teaching for the Chula Vista Elementary School District where she taught third grade at Hilltop, Los Altos, and Halecrest Schools.

Pat got her B.A. at Denison University in Granville, Ohio in 1960 and has retired from a career in computing, starting with the IBM 7090 in 1961 and ending up at San Diego State University.  You can visit Pat on facebook. (https://www.facebook.com/pat.coffey.986)

   

In 2010 we found this sweet stray in our back yard.  Pat fed her for several months and then let her in.  She is quite old but very sweet.  We named her Pansy but found out later that she had been called Amber.  So now she has a middle name.  We call her Pansy Amber Cat. Pansy went to cat heaven in 2014 at the age of 18 or so.

...  We  miss all the sweet animals we have loved all these years
