Jerri Ann Swanson Strong

No Picture in Annual

        (Information taken from 25th Alumni Banquet Booklet May 2008.  You may send updated information to webmaster at any time)

Spouse:  Steve

Children:  Katie-21 & Cody-19 (Jerri's) and Ashley-21 & Courtney-17 (Steve's).  Also a 3 year old Granddaughter.

     My hobbies will always include the following:  Shopping, boating and horseback riding.

     In the past 25 years, I have lived in Whiting, Onawa, Sgt. Bluff and Hawarden, Ia, and Alcester, SD.  I have worked with everything from hogs to horses. 

     We own our own acreage, where I have horses, cats and dogs.  IN 25 long years I have had many jobs, many that I hated I must add.  I have gone to school for cosmetology, and have cut and styled many heads of hair--not to mention when in school I was known as the "Pin Curls queen"--Let's see how many pin curls we can set in a little old ladies head with no HAIR!  ASK ME IT CAN BE DONE!! (God!! Was I glad to be out of school).  Later on and bored, or just burnt out on Hair, I moved on to pursuing a career in the animal field of Vet Tech work--I can graciously say that I would much rather work with animals than people--and love it--I like the fact that the animals don't talk back like people and they are always happy to see ya. 

     In looking back, I can remember the good ole days at Decatur.  Thanks for the invitation and hope to see all of you there.
