Born and raised right here in the Eugene area, went to Howard Elementary, Colin Kelly Junior High and North Eugene High. Graduated in Feb. married in March, had 2 children, 7 birds, (up to) 13 cats and 2 dogs, a garden and a nice house. Worked at Fairfield Elementary in Special Ed for 15+yrs, 4 of my neighbors-- including best friend and soul-sister Penny Harding James-Long--became Belly Dancers. After 23 yrs of marriage I ran away to Bandon, and Coos Bay for a couple of years, came home and landed in Springfield. I guess thats about it, 'cept I have a beautiful Grandson that just turned 1 yr old in June, and I have happy, successful grown children that I am so proud of and wouldn't trade for the world!
