"During WWII the Japanese forced the young people to work in the rice filed, I was one of them. The Americans reclaimed the island the war was over. The civilian hospital was under the control of the Naval Government and needed more nurses. I decided to go to Nursing School. After graduating, I was hired to work in the new wing as charge nurse and assigned to relieve the night supervision on Wednesdays. Work for 5 years and got married and left for the states. I lived in Indianapolis for 10 years, then moved to Princeton, IL. I went back to nursing, working in the local hospital there for 3 years. I moved to Rolla, MO and worked in the Phelp Co. hospital in the ICU. I enrolled in Nursing Psychology in University of Missouri, Columbus and Guiding and Counseling in University of Missouri, Rolla.  I moved back to Indiana, where I start working in Columbus Regional Hospital in surgical services. My specialty was surgery and laser.  I have a degree in BS in Professional Art, concentration in Health Services Administration (a long distance education). I took summer residency -to take ethic, leadership training, and strategic management-Saint Joseph College, Windham Maine. Joined the LDS Church and sealed with my husband in Washington DC Temple. Served in Louisville Temple, young woman advisor, cub scout leader and teacher. Retired from C.R.H after 30 years, my husband was very happy to have me home."
