I was born the day before Valentine's Day in 1948 and raised at Lenore, WV. After marrying my high school sweetheart, we went to Newport News, VA where my husband worked on the shipyard, and then later moved to Columbus, Ohio, and then later back to Lenore, WV where we eventually had a trucking business and a retread shop and sold commercial tires. We raised two great sons. I have always worked in the medical profession all my life since the age of about 18, except for the periods that I did not work to help my husband in our family business of trucking and retreading/selling tires. We were married for 32 years until my husband died of cancer on March 10, 1998. I am just a plain, easy-going person. I am retired as of January 12, 2008--Yey! I enjoy back-yard gardening (tomatoes and flowers mostly), embroidering, walking, doing graphics and making layouts, working on my genealogy, reading, cooking (nice to eat out sometimes too), and being with my family and having big dinners together.
