Things I Would Like My Classmates to Know:

I have been blessed with a truly wonderful life.

I am so saddened by the loss of so many classmates.

My husband and I volunteer with Project Pet to rescue mistreated dogs. We currently have six that we have adopted (they behave better than most children and they never leave you to get married and start families of their own.

I’m very excited about seeing everyone again.
