2017 has been quite a year! As i look back at the many ups and downs i am happy to realize that all in all this was a good year!! Dave had the joy of his coaching career with a trip to Columbus with the McKinley Lady Pups! We continue to thank Coach Pam and coach Willie for having him on staff. His coworker Mickey got married and we were there to celebrate her and Carl! @victoria_margarett turned 21, had her third knee surgery as we found out she has Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. She started her 4th year of college and was identified to present at the Mount Union Women’s brunch. She serves as a RA at school and worked a part time job all year!!! This year @maggie_dominick graduated high school@where she had a stellar athletic career. Committed to play softball for @mountunion and lives in the same floor as Victoria in Cunningham hall. Maggie and Victoria continue our family legacy as Purple Raiders!! We took our family vacation in NC where Dave and I celebrated 10 years of marriage. I served my last year as Vice Chair for the #profootballhof enshrinement Fam Appreciation Parties. Watched my beautiful cheerleaders from the stands this year and saw 4 more graduate!!! I got to travel more for fun than business this year spending time with those whom i love and cherish. Gia made her #firsthycommunion and watched Dominick sing in his first school play as a “typical” child! My sister @ginabannevich won the #mirrorballtrophy as the DANCING WITH THE CANTON STARS champ! And Andrea transitioned gracefully from single mom to empty nester securing a new position at work and surviving a literal death scare for the new year!!!! We welcomed a new sister when @hoosiers8169 proposed to Brenda and her beautiful kids! I spent the year with my dearest friends and enjoyed every moment with my staff at work, having the best boss in the world!! To make the year even better - my @purpleraiders are 13x National Champs thanks in part to my boys @cole_moxie and @gabembrown All in all it was a good year and i learned to take time out from coaching, which i miss terribly. I learned to be focused on only being a coach’s widow (wife). #trulyblessed #goodyear #heresto2018
