As an agent for Coldwell Banker Real Estate Company in Oradell, New Jersey,  Ramona never gets tired of viewing houses for sale!  She guesses that comes from being interested in antiques, home decor and lifestyles in general.
As far as professional achievements, Ramona thinks she'd have to say that  the first time she reached "over a million" in real estate sales many years ago, would probably be noteworthy.Unforgettable moment?  She would like to forget that time many years ago when she cleaned and defrosted their refrigerator just before a much needed vacation.  They enjoyed the vacation, but upon their return she and her husband had to wear gas masks before entering their apartment.  Ramona had forgotten to turn the refrigerator back on and a "big standing rib roast" - among other things - had rotted while they were away. 
As for her life's highlights, in the beginning, she was convinced that she wanted to be a career/business person and not be into child rearing, etc.  Once her first child, Lynda, was born, life's meaning turned a full 180 degrees, and she realized how much babies and children meant to her.  Memories of their travels over the years are vividly etched in her mind, and thank goodness, because on one occasion, after packing all the tons of kiddie "stuff" they had to take with them, her husband inadvertently left the camera on the roof of the car.   They spent many happy vacations with the children and Ramona's Mom down at LBI and Cape May, going to the farm stands for fresh produce , bringing home fresh seafood and cooking it all up at their shore home. 
In the achievement category, Ramona felt that marrying off 3 daughters was a pretty big deal.  She said that watching her husband's face turn green over the cost of everything and then back to normal, was another achievement for which she and her daughters will always be grateful.

Marcia  has been teaching at the Bradley Hills Presbyterian Church Nursery School for the past 32 years.  She plans to continue teaching because she loves the children, their families and the staff.   Ed will be retiring from his law practice next year and will be able to devote time to his hobbies.
Both she and Ed took care of Marcia's  mother for many years and are currently taking care of Ed's father for more than ten years.  All this in addition to raising 3 children !!  As for hobbies, Marcia loves tennis, reading and being with family. However, due to those family commitments, she and Ed have not had the opportunity to travel as much as they might have liked to.  They did have a wonderful trip to Scotland in 1988 and a "perfect" trip to Paris in 2003.  They also had 3 February vacations in Tortola and The Cayman Islands - which were truly a winter "get away". 
Marcia tells us she and Ed have been happily married and raised happy, healthy and successful children, and are grateful to have seen them have children of their own.  She looks on their wedding, and births of their children and grandchildren as the most unforgettable moments in her life.  They now look forward to being "empty nesters" for the first time and a new chapter will begin in their lives.
