About me/us (Hobbies, interests, life philosophy, etc.) :

Spirituality & women's causes

Hanging out with my boys, going to movies, reading and traveling when I can with my girlfriends

Who else in your family is a CHS Alum?

My sister, Patti, graduated in 1965-66. She passed away on her fiftieth birthday in 1997.
I live in San Jose CA. with my boys nearby and lots of friends. I volunteer and am active in my catholic church. I enjoy reading and having small groups of friends over for brunch or tea.
I enjoy retirement and am still busy with some training sessions 2-3 times a year via Zoom for my nonprofit agency.

Favorite School Story:

I remember one time Clint Eastwood was at the 9-hole golf course across from the high school and we were all so excited to rush over after class and see him.

What teacher inspired you the most & how has it affected your life?

I always enjoyed Spanish class and my teachers and loved the trips to Mexico to see the country that was available through our class.
In college, I volunteered to work with the poor in Mexico and joined a group through the Catholic Church called Amigos Anonymous and worked with the poor in Southern Mexico in 1968 for the summer before I graduated from college with a BA in sociology.

I'm saddened by the news that Caren has died, I had hoped to connect with her again at our next 60th-year class reunion.  Rest in Peace Caren and know that memories of you and all you did for others will comfort us in our loss.Mary Ellen (Bergman) Peterson
