Glen

Glen and his wife met in college, at Miami of Ohio.  Glen played football under Coach Bo Schembechler, who went on to a Hall of Fame coaching career at the University of Michigan.  

Glen played professional football for a short while with the Pittsburgh Steelers.  He was a backup defensive end and a backup kicker.  After a concussion, he called his wife and told her it was time to come home.  Glen was a longtime teacher, coach and school administrator.

Hugh and Pam

I like talking with strangers.  Hugh and Pam walked past me wearing identical shirts.  I called out, "Who decides the color you are going to wear each day?'  They stopped and we talked.  Hugh and Pam are originally from Jamaica, have been in the States since 1990 and today are proudly U.S. citizens.  Both work in hospital administrative jobs.  Pam is introverted but Hugh is an extreme extrovert.

 

As I often do before or after taking a photograph, I said, "Tell me about yourselves."  Well!  I can tell you every place they have lived.  Everything about their four sons and many grandchildren.  (The first and last grandchildren are girls and the ones in the middle are boys, born April 1, May 2 and June 3 and they hope for another to be born on July 4.)  Such a nice couple.  Thanks for stopping.
