Hey, I never knew your middle name.Where did you go to college?
I graduated in 1968 from Bluffton High School and had no idea what I wanted for my life I just knew I needed to get out of Bluffton. I had heard about Freeman Jr. College through a student of my father's at BC and decided that's where I wanted to go. I majored in music and Tim, my husband, who I met there, with a general education degree. Our intent was to finish college but, unfortunately it never happened.
