I have spent over 40 years in public and private education. I am a proud first generation college graduate with a hearty post graduate resume. I was a teacher of special needs students, regular educ, an school and district administrator. I am most proud of my devoted husband of over 40 years and two wonderful children. A son and daughter who love life, along with a daughter-in-law who added joy to our family. My two beautiful grandchildren who I cherish. My numerous family and friends who tolerate and encourage my numerous activities . Most of all I will forever be grateful to my parents who allowed me to be true to myself and follow my dreams even when other women of in the 50's & 60's were not encouraged to do so.
