Jane (Buchholz) Gallagher and her husband Larry were high school sweethearts at GHS, class of 67.  They married after graduation and have lived in Crawfordsville, Indiana for many years.   They have one son Kevin, who is now married and living near them.  Larry works for the “Paper of Montgomery County” and Jane is a retired school teacher. 
Jane also wrote a weekly article for the same newspaper
which ran for several years.  She now shares with us her stories of growing up in Inidana. 

Guard Duty:      

One weekend a month, and two weeks of the summer for eight years, I became an army wife. It was a good thing it wasn’t a full-time position because my poor army husband probably wouldn’t have made it past the rank of private. My husband Larry was a member of the Indiana National Guard back in the seventies.  He returned home from his basic training in South Carolina an hour before Kevin was born. His homecoming was in the maternity ward of the hospital.
