I received my AAS in Accounting from Monroe Community College in Rochester, NY in 1999. This degree took me about 10 years to complete, as I worked 2 jobs plus took the classes.
I am currently working on my Court Reporting degree from Alfred State via online course. One semester to go. It is a very grueling course.
Daniel Frank Colebert, my son born 8/3/84, is attending Indiana University of Pennsylvania. He received an ROTC scholarship, and started his second year last week. He plans to go into the service as an officer; wants to do Special Ops; wants to retire in 20 years and move back to Eldred where he grew up and attended Otto-Eldred HS.
I will have been married 6 years in September to Dan Collins of Rush, NY. We live in Chili, NY about 15 minutes from Rochester. We had a little girl April 6, 2002, Abigail Elizabeth. I currently stay home with her and work for my Professor at Alfred State by correcting papers for him, and running the online email/support group for students. I plan to return to work when I finish my course or Abby goes to school, which ever comes first. I am really excited for Abby, as the schools up here have pools in them, and I remember all the good times I had swimming for Smethport and Otto-Eldred. Hoping she will enjoy it also.
She finished school in May, 2007, and now I am a working court reporter going to Parole Boards, Grand Jury, Depositions and such. It is a very rewarding field.
I also began my photography business in January of 2007 www.rhodagraphs.com.
My son graduated from IUP with a degree in Criminal Justice in May, 2006, and is a 2nd Lieutenant in the National Guard active. He lives in Indiana, PA and plans to wed this fall, as he will be going to Iraq in the summer of 2008.
