    • About Me

      I am 55 years old. Married to my second husband who is a wonderful man. Lost my only son last December 15 to a massive stroke. Lost my mother 5 years ago and my father 30 years ago this month. I am an Executive Assistant to a wonderful man for a group International Swimming Pool Builders. This job is the best and only through the grace of God do I have it. Going through some rough times at the moment and just looking for some guidance.
