My Parents - Tom and Noreen Chaye


My Mom and Dad both grew up in Maple Heights, Ohio.  They started dating during my mothers senior year.  They continued dating during my dad's time in the US Army.  They were married on August 8, 1968.  My dad has worked at Ford for the past 30 plus years and hopes to soon be a retiree.  My mom has dedicated her life to taking excellent care of her family.  Even though all three of her kids have grown, she hasn't retired.  She has continued right on with helping provide child care for all her grandchildren.  We might hear her complain a little, but she will admit she loves having them. They attend nearly all the grandkids athletic activities, take them to plays and to the movies, and even to professional sporting events.  With the grandchildren counter at eight and still counting, they have truly created a legacy to be proud of.
