From Parkview — Ann Homer

April 1997

Historical April 1997 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

Ann Homer, long-time resident of Parkview, was recently elected president of the Parkview Board of Agents. Ann and her husband, Bob, bought their first house in Parkview in 1971.

They moved from Washington to Westminster in 1983.

The Homers have five children, all of whom attended St. Roch. Bob, the oldest, will be married in the spring of 197. Kay is attending St. Louis University Medical School. Lisa will be coming back from her job in North Carolina to be married here in the summer of 1997. Laura is a junior at the University of Kansas and Richard is a sophomore at DeSmet. Ann used to be known as “the ice skating lady” because of her significant service (10 years) as a founding member of the Friends of Steinberg Rink.

She also has been a long-time member of St. Roch parish, volunteering in many capacities, including past president of the St. Roch School Board. Ann’s alma mates include St. Roch, Visitation, and the University of Dayton (Ohio) where she majored in political science. Ann’s goal as president of the Parkview Agents is to keep residents informed about what is going on and to welcome residents’ input on all Parkview matters.

As far as MetroLink is concerned, she would like to keep residents informed of all options relative to Parkview.

The emphasis tis year will probably be on street repair and lighting (on-going problems) as well as researching lighting Limits Walkway.
