What was your most embarrassing moment at Parkview?

When our Girls' Glee Club performed on stage, and I "tried" to sing Handel's Messiah while eating snack mix: those pretzels really stuck in my throat! Boy, did I get in trouble with Miss Rathbone!

Describe your car and favorite destination:

CAR? I didn't even have a car! I guess I must have begged rides with everyone I knew and screamed:
"SHOTGUN" as we were walking to the parking lot.

How have you changed since Parkview?

I have become a wife, a mother, a grandmother, and a keeper of all the above. According to Dr. Laura, I am an "encourager".

What careers have you pursued?

I worked in an accounting firm for many years.

What do you do these days to have fun?

I herd cattle; I side step the bull like a little old matador; I help baby ducks pip out of their shells; I rescue abused dogs on their last legs, literally.

And most importantly, I learn something new every day from helping raise three grandsons from birth who are now 12, 9 and 9.

Comments:

Retirememt is wonderful! There are so many more days in the week than there used to be.

We have an "Animal Sanctuary" in the wilds of Dade County, MO - a registered herd of Limousin cattle, llamas, many rescued dogs, two elderly cats, guineas, ducks and parrots - Never a dull moment - carpet rarely dry.
