Gal from Kalamazoo

Post by Pam Orr »

Hello everyone and I am back. Some of you may remember me from APMS at Danbury Connecticut or a previous modeling site.
I moved from NY to Kalamazoo Michigan where I grew up after my husband passed away. He was ill from leukemia and the reason you have not heard much from me in these past few years. I also fell and broke my ankle in three places while moving which held me up. The year 2013 wasn't a very good one for me, actually my worst.
It has taken me two years to unpack but I've finally gotten my modeling room set up and proper ventilation for my paint booth so I'm good to go!
Next is getting my camera out and a photo area set up so I can show what I've done.
Also, I'll be attending my first local modeling club meeting in a few weeks. It should be interesting when they see a 65 year old lady walk in the room with figures and tanks!
It's nice to be back and hope to talk with some of you soon.
Pam

Hi Pam,

glad to see you're back :)

I'm sorry to hear that things have been rough for you, but let's hope things will improve from here onwards. There are still a few familiar faces from the days of Modelarmour around here :)

Good to hear you are getting back to plastic, you are in a the right place to gently get back to the bench, building and painting :D

Have fun ;)

Hi Pam

How lovely to have you back. You stick in my memory by virtue of being a lady and an excellent modeller :D
So sorry to hear about your husband. You shared with us back in Model Armour days that he was ill.

Hope the ankle is repaired and great to have you back. Good luck walking into the Model Club room - Go for it!!
Look forward to seeing some more of your work

Best regards

Rob

Thank you all for the kind responses. I do remember most of you so I guess my Alzheimer's isn't that bad yet!
