Keith Nonnenberg's career selection was a no-brainer.

Nonnenberg, 42, of Plum saw how much his mother, the late Carolyn Nonnenberg, enjoyed her job as a teacher in the district.

I saw the enjoyment she got from teaching, said Nonnenberg, a teacher himself for nearly 20 years in the Plum School District.

Carolyn Nonnenberg died July 25, 2012 of cancer, her son said. She retired in 2005 after nearly 40 years in the district.

Carolyn Nonnenberg is one of five Plum graduates selected as members of the Plum High School Distinguished Alumni Class of 2013. She was a 1961 graduate of Plum High School.

The honorees are set to take their place on the Alumni Wall of Distinction, just outside the Plum High School auditorium.

In addition to Nonnenberg, the 2013 class members are:

Dr. Michelle Fisher Freeman completing her fellowship training in palliative medicine and hospice care at UPMC and pursuing her master's degree in medical education at the University of Pittsburgh, Class of 2001.

Judge Lee Mazur senior judge in the Family Division of the Court of Common Pleas, Class of 1957.
