About Me

 

Celebrated my 25th wedding anniversary with my husband Dennis Quinn at Ohio University's Baker Center

 

When we first met in 1977 he was a student at OU and I was a student at OSU.  We had lots of fun evenings at Baker Center, the OU student center.  Baker Center will be dismantled soon, so it was fitting to spend our 25th anniversary dinner here.
