About Me



Myspace Layouts & Myspace Graphics
I'm a 60ish widow with 9 grandchildren & 1 great-grandchild. I live in the midwest. I love the Lord & Southern Gospel Music.

My Interests

I love the Lord, Southern Gospel Music, & cats. I collect cat figurines, etc., bells, spoons, & snowmen. I love to read & have an extensive home library. I also have loads of Southern Gospel Music CDs, cassettes, videos, & DVDs.

I'd like to meet:

Pres. Bush, Billy Graham, Dr. Charles Stanley, Chuck Swindoll

Music:

Southern Gospel Music is my very favorite. I still like some Country Music but it would be mostly 'classic' at this point. Love to hear piano music. Some of my favorites are: Brian Free & Assurance, Gold City, Mercy's Mark, LeFevre Quartet, Ivan Parker, Kirk Talley, The Booth Brothers, Legacy Five, Greater Vision, The Talleys, & more.
