Joan Dendinger

I am very bummed to report that I will not be able to make the reunion. My eldest is taking chemistry in summer school along with drivers' ed, and I can't just leave the kids and galavant off to South Dakota. I will be there July 26 and stay a week. Will the town have recovered from the festivities? After leaving the hallowed halls of YHS, I attended Creighton for a year and continued on to USD. I bounced back down to Creighton for dental school, receiving my DDS in 79. I spent 5 years active in the navy, stayed reserve, retired with the rank of captain. I spent 10 years married. In my 40's I realized I had forgotten to have children so I adopted two of the best kids in the whole world, Marian, almost 16, and Ellen, 12. I'm an unwed mother and don't know who fathered my children. I have my own dental practice in Yucaipa, CA. If you are in Yankton the 26th to the 2nd, you can reach me at my mom's.
