  Heidi and puppy at Calvary Episcopal
        Church, Memphis  Heidi Hill Tobin

        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.
