Janet Moon Rose

After high school I went to the University of Massachusetts, graduating in 1955 with a BS. I taught home economics in Holyoke and Northampton, Massachusetts, Batavia, New York, and West Canaan, New Hampshire. Bruce and I married in 1955, and we have moved twelve times over the years, living in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire (in a town smaller than Hopedale). I have recently moved back to Massachusetts where I am nearer to some of my family.

I love being retired, enjoying family and friends, and my favorite hobby is sewing, especially quilting. The two quilt groups I belong to make quilts for various charities. We go to many quilt shows, the largest being in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
