Michelle (Rabe) Fussner's Page

I'm hoping that this is Brenda's little sis. I send an invitation to her for this site but I might have an old email address. If you are here little sister please let her know about the site and let her know that we are trying to see about doing a 25 year reunion.

Thanks,
Eric Speake

Hey, Chelle! How are you? Isn't this a neat-o idea? I guess we actually have to give Tom some credit now :-). What is up to you? There isn't a lot of info or pics on your page.

OMIGOSH your baby is cute, cute, cute. Congratulations!
I remember being a new mom is crazy-I am proud of you for having any time to set a page up on this site.
What kind of law do you practice? Are you currently working or staying with your baby?
Our girls are total opposites. The oldest is very serious and passive and the little one is a total alpha female diva. I'll let you guess who takes after who... :-)
Gosh, it is great to hear from you. This website is more fun for me than I would like to admit. I am done teaching for the summer and unfortunately I've got nothing but CaboolSpace and the swimming pool with my girlees going on (I guess that it is actually kind of nice).
We haven't completely decided on the reunion-probably though.

Hey there, Michelle. Can't believe we still both live in St. Louis and haven't seen each other! Congratulations on your little girl - she's very cute. Where in St. Louis are you? We are now in the Creve Coeur/Frontenac area and love it - probably has been our favorite place to live in St. Louis. We moved because of the school district - our kids go to Spoede School in the Ladue District. Would love to hear from you and maybe even get together as we are so close!

Your daughter is super cute. It sounds like you and I are in the same boat- late mommies. :)

Hey baby sister. Loved the pics..

I live in south Texas (San Antonio). My husband and I have a Group Benefits Consulting Business. I have been in Texas since 2002 and love it here. I will never live north again!
Yes- I function with chronic exhaustion. And yet we are trying for #2, before I get too old. :) My staff thinks I am insane-

I won't make it back to reunion. Too many other trips scheduled for this summer. I try to get to Springfield once a year to see Becky and her boys, but that is pretty far from you.

Keep in touch.

Small world - we actually live in Ballwin for 4 years, from 2002 until 2006. We lived off of Ries Rd. between Manchester and Big Bend. Where are you at? We may have been pretty close to each other for a while! I am assuming you work full time downtown? What law firm are you with? And your hubby is from St. Louis? We are definitely going to try to make it to the reunion and can catch up more there!

Hey Michelle! Your daughter is soooooooo sweet.

Wow 80? Really? My mom passed away last March unexpectedly in her sleep. She only got to meet Finola once- She was scheduled to be back in Texas that April ('07).

40 for sure is my cut off date. First pregnancy was VERY BAD! They almost lost me- I am content with Just Fin- it's just that after losing my mom and dealing with all that ensued, I came home really thankful that I had a brother to go thru it with. And since we are older parents, I worry about her being left without a sibling to struggle thru life's challenges with,to confide things in you would never tell anyone else, and to celebrate all her triumphs with. You know........ you aren't an only child. It would be different if we had her at 20- we would be there to see her find her way a little further into the world. But my mom died pretty young- so I have to be realistic about it. We will be 58 when she graduates from college!

I remember Finola at 8 months- we were still bringing her to the office with us. Finally, at 9 months I transitioned her and the nanny to the house because she was getting into everyone's stuff and the employees were starting to complain. :( I still love it when she gets to come in- except now she runs around trying to answer all the phones when they ring- not exactly good for business!
