Description
Nancy Mitchell was born in Kingsport, Tennessee, where she resided for 5 years. She and her family then moved to Brighton, Colorado, where she attended public school for twelve years. After graduating from the University of Colorado in Boulder, she was hired as a flight attendant by Pan American World Airways. Based in San Francisco for ten years, she flew mainly to cities bordering the Pacific Ocean with a few trips to London, Rio de Janeiro and New Delhi. When asked what her favorite city was, she would always say, "Hong Kong." The shopping was great and the food was even greater---important considerations for airline crew members! Another important criteria for Nancy was safe jogging paths---sometimes difficult to find in cosmopolitan cities.
Nancy met her husband John, a pilot for American Airlines, in Fiji . Eighteen months later, they were married. John came with an instant family of three boys-- Dave, Tom and Mike---and two girls--Susan and Kathy---who had moved to Seattle from Connecticut. Daughter Jenny was born when Mike was 18, and they decided that six was enough! John retired from American Airlines in September of 1996.
In addition to jogging around the world, reading and writing were always two of Nancy's most important hobbies. During John's days of flying model airplanes, Nancy was the newsletter editor of the model airplane club. When Jenny was in the third grade, Nancy was secretary of the PTA and became president of the PTA two years later. She was treasurer of Fremont Council PTA for two years and is currently council newsletter editor. She is also currently Peralta District PTA treasurer. She is a member of the Superintendent's Parent Advisory Committee and is a Fremont Unified School District surrogate parent who attends IEP meetings for special education students of all ages.
