edit data

This is my memoir. I started writing it in 1999 and finished it in 2024. I wrote it as a reflection on life in the 1970s and 1980s. As a college student, I was prepared to finish my four years and become a wife and mother. Life stepped in when my boyfriend returned from the Vietnam War and no longer wanted to be a husband. I soon found a job as an airline hostess. This book is a walk-through of my life and the hundred events that occurred during my 16 years of flying with TWA.
