Stay at home mom when kid where small. Worked with my Mom at her drapery shop. Had my own drapery business. Worked for Public, Hallmark, and retired from Target early to care for my aging parents. They passed away this year at the age of 89 and had just celebrated their 68th anniversary. We just moved to South Venice and love it. I grew up in Venice Gardens. We were the third family to move in there.

After we moved to Venice from Cincinnati, Ohio, I started out in fourth grade at Venice Elementary. Was in Mrs. Frank's class. Venice Jr and high school.
