Lonnie Takahashi Schuder ~ La Mesa, CA
After high school I went to college, got married and had 2 kids, a son & daughter. I
worked as a florist for the next several yrs. Then got a divorce after 71/2 yrs of
marriage. Then my parents opened a produce business just down the street from
Monte Vista. We operated Takahashi Farms and I sold flowers there for the next 10 yrs.
I got remarried and had 1 more son. Will and I have been married for 28 yrs. I started
selling real estate in 1980. My husband and I are now with RE/MAX in Rancho San
Diego. We have 3 kids and 5 grandkids. We now live in La Mesa and look forward to
retiring within the next few years. I love to travel, shop and play with my grandkids!

Debbie Thatcher Craig ~ El Cajon, CA
After graduating, I attended beauty college, got my Cosmetology License and went to
work in a beauty salon in Casa de Oro. A year later I married Thomas Cooney
(Grossmont - Class of '65). Daughter, Jillene was born in 1970. I was widowed in 1972.
In 1977 I met and later married Dennis Craig (Monte Vista - Class of '65). This year we
celebrate 30 years together.
I have worked 3 days a week as a beautician in the same salon for 40 years! The salon
has changed owners and locations several times (but I never got the hint) and I
continued on with each change. No changes for some time though as we have been in
our current location with the same owners for 18 years (in Casa de Oro).
In addition to spending time with my four grandchildren, my favorite past times and
hobbies include, being with my husband, traveling, Genealogy research and
scrapbooking. Our daughter, Jill, and grandchildren Nolan, Coleton, Landon & Railyn
recently moved to Denver, which gives me another place to visit.
