“sold for a year and went back (to school) and got a broker’s license.” In March of this year, she opened up what is now the only realty business in Milford, Richardson’s Realty. She enjoys this business a great deal and although she admits catering to clients’ needs, she still finds a freedom in owning her own business. Her husband Wayne will be joining the business part time in the fall after he attends a realty school. He currently works at Holiday Rambler Corporation. In addition to her work at her business, Barb keeps busy by working with the emergency medical service in Milford. Her realty business is conveniently located right across the street from the Milford EMS, making it easier for her to respond to as many calls as she can. She has volunteered for this service for nine years and her only complaint is that they are “shorthanded right now.” A member of the Maple City Saps, a cafnping club, Barb says she and her husband get out of doors a lot. Camping “all over the place,” Barb notes, she and her husband seem to like the state parks best. Her three children, Kathy, John and Terry, have fond memories of camping with their parents and Barb shares that same fondness. Her positive outlook and enthusiasm leave a lasting impression as she concludes, “you are your own person, vou have to work at it to make it in life.”
