Keck Wilson, Arline

 


Medford, OR


CURRENT ACTIVITIES: Full-time secretary with Asante Child Development Services worship leader at church. I play guitar, love bicycling and am learning to downhill ski. Very bitten by the "rubber stamp bug."
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PAST 40 YEARS: Some ups and downs - married to a man who loves me and his children very much. Have traveled to Jordan and Israel and have participated in a short term mission to the Dominican Republic. Have lived in the same community for nearly 30 years and have enjoyed being a mother and homemaker (I didn't go to work till the children were raised). I love being a grandma and spend a lot of time with the four who live in this area. I am very involved in my church (Cornerstone Christian) and feel my life is very blessed. Best job ever - teaching kindergarten in a Christian school 15 years ago. Lots of hugs - can't beat that.

Son:  Joshua; Grandson: Spencer
CURRENT ACTIVITIES:  Early Childhood Educatio Administrator, Professional Astrologer, on-line writer, chorus member/performer.  Especially enjoy live theater, gardening, women's spirituality group, my grandson, studies in Feng Shui and Taoism.  I try to focus on the present and observe the following:   "Things arise and she lets them come; things disappear and she lets them go.  She has but doesn't posses, acts but doesn't expect.  When her work is done, she forgets it."  -Lao-tsu (Tao Te Ching, Chapter 2, Stephen Mitchell: translator)

Children/Grandchildren:  Cris (35) has three step-children and one grand-daughter; Debbie (34) is very dedicated to her career and her mother; Mike (31) is married and has two children.
CURRENT ACTIVITIES:  I have worked for Bi-Mart Corp. for the last 22 years.  I try to spend as much time with my family as possible.  It seems like all I ever do is work and go home, but that's not always true.  My mother lives in Springfield and I try to visit her at least once a week.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PAST 40 YEARS:  I've been married twice and divorced twice.  Currently I have been single for about 25 years.  Life has been good, I have moved around some but basically I have stayed in the Eugene/Springfield area - I like it here.

HIGHLIGHTS OF PAST 40 YEARS: I was married in 1961 and had three children. Divorced in 1969. 1969 to 1989 were hard years - bad choices and many blessings. All 3 daughters graduated from high school. Youngest daughter graduated from WOSC in 1989 and is a teacher. Paula and Cyndi are stay at home moms and home school their kids. I remarried but was widowed in 1994. I spent most of my adult life as a nursing student, working in a hospital, nursing homes or travel nursing throughout the north and southwest. Began an adult foster home a few months after my husband died and have been doing this ever since. Seven years now - rewarding!! My hobby is painting canvas, long and round saw blades - wood cutesy crafts. I live for my grandkids and painting!! In 1996 I sold the ranch we bought in 1985 and bought a new house in town. I am very proud of the fact that I am able to do anything I want without having to depend on a man.

     I went to elementary school at Walterville and Leaburg.  I finished eighth grade at Thurston Junior High.  I then moved with my family to Pennsylvania.
      After College, I married than had a son.  In 1973, my husband died of Hodgkin's disease.  In 1976, I married my loving husband Bill.
     My son is married but there are no grandchildren yet.
     I retired after teaching first and second grade for over 30 years.  I have done some traveling and work part time in our church preschool.  I play bridge often and I stay busy doing other things I want to do!  We are very active at church.
     My husband is a falconer.  He hunts with a redtailed hawk.  We do programs at schools and parks with his bird.
     I am looking forward to coming to Oregon with my mother in July 2004.

   I've enjoyed looking at this website maintained for the specific graduating class of 1961 since I attended Springfield schools for all but my last 2 years.  I graduated from North Eugene High School yet consider Springfield "my school". 
   It happened that the 30th class reunion of both schools occurred on the same weekend so I was able to attend both. That was the last reunion that N.E. had, and how I managed to get in the Springfield photo. I have to confess that at both reunions I had wondered where all these "old" people came from...time has a unique way of smacking us up alongside the head with a reality check, doesn't it?  
    I married my best friend, Wayne Weller (Springfield, class of '55) in June,  1962.  We like to participate in car shows during the summer; camp and fish  whenever we can fit it in. I also enjoy gardening, reading and quilting. 
    We've lived in a number of places all around the state of Oregon, and 7 years ago moved to the Bend area.  I consider myself fortunate that I have not worked outside the home in 41 years of marriage, and thankfully didn't have to.  God has blessed us with 3 sons, 1 of  which is deceased and we're the proud picture carrying grandparents of 5...4 boys and a girl. 
    We've had our share of highs and lows throughout our lives, some things we would do differently, some things would remain the same; but  throughout all has been the gracious, merciful and consistent faithfulness of our Lord Jesus Christ.   For that we are eternally grateful.
