Update on Anna (Hendricks) Perry

Both parents are deceased and brother, Roland, lives in Scottsbluff and works at Home Depot. I am single, having been divorced for the past 23 years, and live in Houston, Texas. My three daughters (Lisa, Lori, and Kim) live 10 minutes from me and are surviving the economic downturns of today. Lisa is a 3rd grade teacher, Lori manages the financial books for a real estate office, and Kim has recently started her own monogramming business as well as a pink limo service (check out her website www.prettypinklimos.com ).

I retired from ExxonMobil in December 2006 so that I could build memories with my two granddaughters Brodie (now 6) and Daylan (now 3). One of my first goals was to attend Master Gardener training which I accomplished in 2007. The Master Gardener certification is a program sponsored by Texas A&M in cooperation with the County Extension offices in Texas.

Besides volunteering at the County Extension office as a part of the Master Gardener program, I volunteer at Brodie’s elementary school. My current goal is to organize a team of parents and ExxonMobil volunteers to build a butterfly garden for the school, which combines my passion for gardening and love of the students.

One of my other goals in retirement was to learn to quilt. I have been taking classes and completed my first quilt this spring. If any of you are quilters and make it to Houston for the International Quilt Show, please get in touch with me.

Address is 16546 N Canyon Trace Dr, Houston, TX 77095. Home phone is 281- 256-3022 and Cell number is 281-627-2565. E-mail address is [email protected]

Would enjoy catching up with old classmates and friends either through Facebook, e-mail, snail mail, or phone!

P.S. The enclosed picture is of a friend and her grandson, my two granddaughters and me (squatted). We took the children on an adventure of downtown Houston, first riding the metro bus to downtown Houston, switching to the metro train, then walking in the underground tunnel back to the bus stop to return home.
