Friday, September 6 – One of Marsha's favorite things to do is get together with her "Divas." She has several different groups of "Divas" she has lunch/dinner with. We have been here only a short six weeks, but she has made time to have lunch with almost all of her friends.
The "Church Divas" spent several hours at the Gervasi Vineyard. They didn't go there for wine tasting, just to have a few hours of chit chat and lunch.
The Vineyard has a beautiful setting.
The "Church Divas" are the gals Marsha worked with at our church, St. Stephen Martyr Lutheran Church. Lynne and Ann also taught with Marsha in the Jackson School District. The gals say the office hasn't been the same since Marsha has left. We are sure it is probably much quieter and less crazy.

Another one of her groups is the "Stark State Technology College Divas." Marsha taught at the College, now known as Stark State College, for several years part-time and eight years full time.
Shirley was Marsha's office mate all her full-time years. Besides being a wonderful teacher, Connie doubled as a babysitter for us on occasion. Believe it or not, Pam has the same lasts name as us but no relations. She is from West Virginia.

The biggest group, when everyone can make it, is the "Jackson Divas." These are all gals Marsha taught with at Jackson. Everyone is retired in the group except for Leigh Ann. She is a bit younger than the others and has a few more years to go.

She always has a wonderful fun time with each of her friends and feels very blessed to have them all in her life.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y'all back real soon. Have a great day!
Always great to catch up with friends (or divas)
ReplyDeletePaul, don't you have any diva's to meet with?
ReplyDeleteAnd what is Paul doing when Marsha is out divaing? (really not a word but you know what I mean.) Isn't it fun to catch up with old friends? Spent a lot of time this summer doing the same thing.
ReplyDeleteNothing better than getting out with great friends!
ReplyDeletenice that you have different groups of 'sisters' to hang out with!!..enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteHow does it go ...."make new friends but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold." Sounds like Marsha has been having a great time.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to get together with all your divas! Inquiring minds want to know how you keep you svelte figure!
