Spouse:  N/A

Children:  Elaine Kathryn Higgins Maldonado-21 (Married, at University of Northern Colorado); Clinton Michael Higgins-19 (Undecided)

     After high school, I attended Lincoln School of Commerce, Kearney State College and Central Community College in Hastings, NE.  In 1989, I finally graduated with an AAS in Legal Secretary.  I moved to Colorado and was baptized as one ofJohovah's Witnesses in 1990.

     I worked 11 years as an Administrative Assistant for the University of Northern Colorado and then "retired" for 2 years.  Now, I work for the Weld County Department of Social Services.

     My hobby is snapping pictures.  I have in my possession over 5600  photographs---that's 280 a year, 23 a month, almost one a day for the last 20 years.   I've done a semi-professional work, but I'm happiest taking pictures of friends and family as pets---and feet.  My daughter once told me that I should pretend pictures were cigarettes and "just say no".

     Now that my kids are grown and it's just me and the 12 year old pooch, I spend most of my spare time watching lame movies that I check out from the library.  I recently borrowed Wayne's World and watched it three times, once with the commentary.  Life really isn't that interesting in this lull between kids and grandkids.  Thank you for the invitation but I will not be attending the banquet.
