Margaret Ellen grows up

Margaret always knew how to smile and get what she wanted.  She won awards all through school and was always charming.  She worked hard when she was in high school. She worked at the Sonic as a skating car hop; she worked in a dentist's office on Saturdays and she worked at the PIzza Hut sometimes until late at night.  For a while she worked at a dime store on Saturdays and after school.

She never let anything interfere with her good grades.  She started talking to a counselor at the high school about how to get scholarships and grants to pay for  college.  And it worked.  She was the recipient of an Edmonds Foundation grant for undergraduate school.  She had a VW bug for her car and she worked on it herself.
