For several years Sally worked at KDEC as traffic manager, secretary and even as a disc jockey! Thanks to more hard work by Paul to make the radio station a success, Sally was able to leave the radio station in 1988 to teach computer science at Luther College for one year. Because of some luck and PaulвЂ™s hard work, they bought KDEC Radio in 1985 and moved to Decorah. After visiting Decorah for a canoe trip, Sally asked Paul why he couldnвЂ™t buy a radio station in a nice town like Decorah. Sally spent the next year and a half being a mommy and doing bookkeeping for WRJC. In February 1984, son Jeffrey made his entrance into the world. In 1983, Paul moved the family to Mauston, WI, where he had purchased WRJC Radio. She then realized that her French degree was not the key to a career, so she went back to school, getting a degree in computer science at UW-La Crosse. Sally worked as a bank bookkeeper, church secretary and stained glass artisan. Sally and Paul spent two years in Port Washington, WI, then moved to La Crosse, WI. In Portland Sally was finally in the right place at the right time and became engaged to Paul (Schinleber) Scott. Sally attended Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois for 2 years and graduated from Portland State University (Oregon) in 1974 with a bachelorвЂ™s degree in French. She graduated from Morgan Park High School as salutatorian in 1970. Herb and Myrt believed in self-improvement, so Sally took dance lessons, piano lessons, elocution lessons, speed-reading lessons and participated in band, church youth group and Girl Scouts. Sally was the middle child, with older brother Richard and younger brother Scott. Sally Jo (Nelson) Scott was born on Decemin Chicago, Illinois to Herb and Myrtle (Harms) Nelson.
