Marketing Director

Went to BU, lived in Germany, Atlanta and Berkeley. I have been in Naples, FL since 1980. Came with former husband and Erin. Divorced 1982.Very active in community especially with Mental Health Association, but other charities and socially active organizations as well as business. Studied languages and still love studying/using them which was not easy early on because Naples was so white bread in 1980. Things have changed! Much more culturally diverse now, too, thank heavens. Love the arts, people, animals and laughing with friends. Also personal growth stuff I suspect most of us have dabbled in by the sounds of Facebook comments. Thanks to Laurie and Eddie for all their work so we could reconnect!

Richard Baumbusch taught me how to wiggle my ears in the third grade. I have a piece of lead in my back, still visible, from when Eddie McKernan poked me with a pencil while sitting behind me in Miss Lynch's sixth grade class.
I think it showed a lot of foresight in those days that we started studying French in the fourth grade in a public school.
I remember that Miss Sledge wouldn't let me and Angela Cifone sing in the spring chorus because she didn't like our voices, maybe third grade.

Enjoyed everything I was involved in. Great friends!
