About Me

My name is Debbie. I'm happily married to the most wonderful man in the world. We have been through a lot together and have just grown closer with each challenge. We have 2 great adult children, Michael and Katie. I'm a Certified Hospice Palliative Nurse and after many years of working in hospice have recently started a new job as Clinical Coordinator for Visiting Nurse Association. This has been a rough year with difficult losses. Mom died April 1,2007 and Dad mourned her so badly and passed away just 3 months later July 3, 2007. My sister and I cared for both of them in my home and now I'm in the process of grieving and healing. I will get through this because of the love of my husband, and family and great friends, both who live near me and my myspace friends. I have always loved American History and am involved with 2 wonderful units, the 53rd Pa Volunteer Inf. Co A. New member of the Daughters of Union Veterans, which I am very proud of, thanks to my grgrgrandfather, Joseph Stinger who was in the 8th Pa Cavalry during the Civil War. I am looking forward to not only reenacting this summer but the living history and parades that we participate in.
