Heidi retired in the summer of 2018 after 37 years of teaching the children of US military personnel on US military bases in Germany.
She taught in
Rumney, NH 1979-1981 (sixth and math in both seventh/eighth
grades) and then joined the US Department of Defense Dependent
Schools. She taught in numerous places, starting in
Wildflecken, Germany, on the East German border during the
Cold War. In 1985 she moved to Mannheim, then in 1989 to
Aschaffenburg, and held several administrative posts
(Assistant Principal, Education Program Manager). In 1992 she
transferred to Darmstadt, teaching computers and then being
the Educational Technologist in the school (by now she had
accumulated certifications in over 30 subjects.) In 2008 when
the US base at Darmstadt closed, she transferred to
Sembach, near the US airfield at Ramstein and the large
US military hospital at Landstuhl. She had a home in
Griesheim (near Darmstadt, south of the Frankfort airport) and
an apartment in Kaiserslautern.
In retirement she plans to divide her time between New London, New Hampshire, and Memphis, Tennessee. She grew up in New London and has spent many summers there, an active participant in the New London Barn Theatre, a summer theatre a few yards from her home.
At present
(winter 2018-19) she is busy training a new puppy, The
Unsinkable Molly Brown (Molly). Molly is expecting to
accompany Heidi everywhere, and has already learned to sleep
quietly through church and synagogue sermons.
