Kathleen Geiger Altman-Radl

Life has been nothing like I ever expected...it's been so much more! I feel I've lived several different lives with lessons in love & trust, adventures & challenges, different lifestyles, children, grandchildren, stepchildren, extended children all returning to the hub of my life at each stage. My greatest accomplishment has been having a positive impact on the young lives I influence & teaching them the art of possibilitarianism!

2nd to that I am always trying to learn new techniques & perfect my passion of quilt art although life keeps me from spending as much time on that as I'd like to. I do have a quilt which will be published in a book in the near future!
Tomas & I met & married in the Caribbean spending summers w/all the kids cruising on our boat to the BVI's...we miss that boat, those trips & our island way of life!

My daughter, Andrea (w/Ralph Bailey) is 45... How did that happen? She is a paralegal & associate jazzercise instructor. My son, Jesse (w/Ed Altman),is 29, a chef by trade & is busy finishing up a house he will either sell or live in awhile...both kids are in the Boca Raton area in Florida. Andrea has 2 children, Lyndsie, 22, & Shane 19. Grandkids are great but I'm glad mine are all over 18 now! I have 3 grandkids in UT that I haven't seen in 10 years after a divorce...ages 14-20...someday we will meet again.

T's oldest daughter, Lara, 20, lives w/us when not @ school in Boca @ FAU. She will become the much needed family shrink!

Lianne, 18, lives in S. Maryland.

On my BUCKET LIST is a family cruise to ALASKA...we leave in 6 days!

Recently I'm learning to paddle board on the Gulf of Mexico which is right in our back yard. We love kayaking & boating & fishing although so far fishing here just does not compare to the rush of deep sea fishing!

I worked for NW Bell for awhile, joined Ralph Bailey in Germany for 1 1/2 years, divorced after 8 years, moved to Sc where my parents were at the time w/my 3 yo daughter, then Ny w/Ed Altman who took me to Ca. We were married for 35 years. After 1 1/2 yrs in the Caribbean, we divorced, he left, I stayed & found myself...& Tomas, married on the beach @ our home, & moved to FL when the island economy tanked & many friends were leaving, our whole social circle changed. Florida is only OK, TOO HOT OR TOO COLD.

I have lived in San Diego, the Carribbean, & now Florida on the Gulf of Mexico. Would like to live somewhere else but not sure where that adventure is yet!
For now we are 2 hours from family so we'll be here awhile.

All my best high school memories & friends centered around the school band & orchestra!
