Animals (rescue, foster care, esp. dogs & cats); two golden retrievers, tennis, reading, walking, outdoors, lake with husband, family, and friends. Interests ... Love my dogs -- my true passion is here; all other interests are same as "Hobbies." Education ... BA in English from Ole Miss - Great In the 1970's I was working in Atlanta. My puppy, Oliver, and I moved to Kansas City in 1979. In 1980 I met my future husband and was married in '83. Here we are in Las Vegas in 1981. 1990's - Here we are sailing on the San Francisco Bay - a much needed getaway from the "homemaking" described below. Tom and I are hanging out on our patio enjoying our dogs and each other. I have a great life, living in Kansas City area with my wonderful husband, 4 stepchildren, 6 grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren. I work alot with animals, as I said before; I have two golden retrievers and a cat, B.C., at home and almost have one or two foster pets at one time (husband's limit is four). Think of many of you often and remember my time at GHS as a magical time -- wish I knew then what I know now! Even though I have a degree in English, my husband Tom says I should have been a criminal lawyer or a veternarian -- oh well, I do a little of both those things now! Can't wait to read about everyone, and thanks to all who are organizing this!!
