On November 19, 1940, I was born at Nyack Hospital. My parents were Bertha and
Al Raebuck. My Dad owned Al’s Diner in Pearl River, in which I worked on Saturdays
and after school. I transferred from Nyack schools to Pearl River in the 8th grade.
I found the sports program interesting at Pearl River, but the most memorable events
were the senior class trip to Washington, DC, graduation and the senior prom.
Following graduation, I found employment as a secretary at Flintkote Company,
Orangeburg, NY. It was there where I met my husband. We were married at
St. Margaret’s on my birthday November 19, 1960.
Our first child, Kathleen, was born September 24, 1961, and our second child, Karen,
February 14, 1967. Kathleen is employed as a nurse in Westchester, New York, and
Karen is in the medical billing field. Kathleen has a son, William, age 13, and Karen has
a son, James, age 15, and a daughter, Kelly, age 12.
I am still employed as office manager at West-Hill Floors in Hillsdale, NJ, since 1979.
I work part-time now, so with my job and family I manage to keep busy.
Unfortunately, on October 11, 2007, my husband passed away after being ill for a long
time with many health problems. We were married 46 years.
