Personally…

“Family, friends and faith are my strength and my joy, providing me with a solid foundation of values to withstand the storms of life and a glad and grateful heart to greet each day.  I love people, animals, books, flowers, good food and beautiful things.  With seven children, their spouses, twenty-four grandchildren and a wonderful husband, I am blessed indeed.  Healthy eating and Pilates keep me feeling great and enjoying the sunshine.”
