Education

I moved to Missouri in 1980 and attended St.Charles County Community College. I received an Associated Degree(2Yrs) in the Social Service field.

Love Life

I was married the first time to ****(who cares). That only lasted a year and a half. I did have a beautiful daughter Melanie. In 1980 I moved to Missouri and met my husband on a blind date. That blind date there was five of us! Him and I, his two children Tanya, and Matt and my daughter Melanie. We have all been together since. I think we have the most successful blended family I know(we don't use the word STEP!) Dwayne and I have been married 20 years. (Dwayne is 7 yrs older than me and has been gray headed since he was 19. It was dark gray when we met but is now white.)He says it is because he is so happy, but I heard stress can do that. I'll go for happy!!

Our 3 children are Tanya 33, Matt 30, Melanie 26. We have 3 grandchildren Steven, Megan, and Paige.


Employment

I did alot of clerical work after high school till I moved to Missouri. I now teach adults with developmental disabilities and mental retardation. It is what I was always meant to do. I have learned some sign language, physical therapy, and most of all alot of patience. The people I work with have taught me as much or more than I have taught them.

Activities

We love to go camping and ride our bikes . I love to read alot, especially true crime. We are members of the Methodist church my husband grew up in and it is like one big family. My Husband loves Bluegrass music and I too have acquired a taste for it.

Accomplishments

My family is of course! And my job. .

Residence

I lived in Rio Linda, Elverta and Rancho Cordova till 1975. I lived in Honolulu, Hawaii where my daughter Melanie was born Back to Sacramento then out to the midwest I live in OFallon Missouri(about 30 miles west of St. Louis)
