Name: Crystal Dewar Maiden Name: Baldwin E-Mail: [email protected] Class of: 1973 Address: 2227 3rd Avenue, Terre Haute , IN 47807 Phone: 812-478-7722 Comments: I have been married to a gentleman, from Jamaica for 10-1/2 years. We met when I was on a small 4-day cruise to the Bahamas. I have a step daughter who is 18, and accepted at Ball State University , to begin in the fall of 2001. I have a nine year old girl, named Adina. Also, I have a three year old boy, Kurtis. Needless to say the last two now keep me busy with school, gym classes, soccer, etc. ...and I love it. I went back to college at age 30, became a travel consultant. I worked 13 years with one company, here in Terre Haute . Then stepped out of the working scene for one year, and went back to work as a Travel Consultant, again, only part time. I have traveled quite a bit, but the children came into the scene about the time I was to leave for Tahiti , and the travel hasnt been as much for the last nine years. NEED TRAVEL??? Call me.

We have 3 wonderful children: my daughter of 26 who has given me a beautiful 4 year old grandson and a granddaughter on the way; a 24 year old son who is one of the most outgoing and magnetic people Ive ever known; and a 13 year old son who is the very best of his mother and I. I work as a Technical Manager at the Caterpillar Pontiac facility.... just over 29 years now with the same company! Im fortunate to travel a good bit with work... to England , Europe , Brazil , and here in the States. Just enough to always wet my appetite for traveling for pleasure... something I want to do much more of with the right companion(s). To top it off, Im also the Mayor of Washburn... crazy enough to do it for a 2nd run... my first in the early 1990s. This tour will be my last. Looking ahead to the Spring of 2005! Id love to hear from any of my classmates and friends.... old, renewed, or just plain new. Drop me a line!
