Married John Park after graduation, had one daughter, Amber with John, who gave us two beautifu granddaughters.  After being married 8 years, divorced John when Amber was 2.  Then five years later married Ron Walker.  Divorced Ron Walker after 20 years, no children with him. But, during that time I worked for the CEO of Texas Oil & Gas, left there and went to work for the Oklahoma State Legislature for 13 years (2 yrs. at the House and 11 yrs. at the Senate)  After divorcing Ron Walker I took a new job running a program called Ag In The Classroom for the Dept. of Education and the Dept. of Agriculture.  Around 2001, I became ill with CFS, Fybromyalgia, 2 buldging discs and degenerative back disease, and couldn't continue to work.   I went on SSI.  I did travel to Africa twice as a missionary and once to Sao Paulo, Brazil.
While I was still working I took a 3 week trip to the Galopolus Islands and got to tour the Darwin Institute there, with a stopover in Quito, Peru.  I've gotten degrees from OCCC as an Associate in Psychology, a Bachelor at OU in Psychology, and a Bachelor at Mid-American Christian University in Behaviorial Science.  Just 2 months ago I married a wonderful man named Earl Raymond (Skip) Rice III who builds 'Muscle Car' engines and race car engines.  He also owns Moore Car Care. We both have Harley Davidson's and plan on doing a lot of trips on them together in the future. I attend Shartel Church of God and sing in the choir.  My husband is a Deacon at 'The Rock' on South Penn, and also sings in the choir plus the praise & worship team.
