News from Nancy Ball Griffin


Nancy (Ball) Griffin with her husband Paul and grandchildren AJ (11) and Elizabeth (9), plus Stella

Nancy and Paul were married in 1963. Nancy graduated from Framingham State College in 1964. She taught in both urban and rural areas in Rhode Island before moving to Rochester, Minnesota where daughter Jennifer was born. Nancy and Paul then lived in the Twin Cities area and Indiana before moving to Columbus, Ohio. She writes, "It took many years, but I finally became a Buckeye Nut," but adds that all New England teams are still her favorites. Nancy worked in several small businesses, in real estate, and as a nursing home administrator. In 1994, Nancy returned to teaching, this time in inner city schools, and reports that she loved it.

In addition to photos of her own family, Nancy sent pictures of the late Pamela (Prime) Miller, who died in 2006. Taken in 1995 and 2001, these will be shared in a special post.

Nancy contributed a story to the GHS Memory Book and will join us at our 50th Class Reunion on July 23-25, 2010. Like many others in our class, Nancy enjoys traveling, reading, crafts, and spending time with friends and family.
