Hello. Some of you may remember me as the daughter of parents who owned the Heights Deli when we were in elementary school and the Bell House when we were in junior and senior high schools. A lot has transpired in all our lives since 1965.

I have been married for 57 years to the same man I went to our junior prom with back in Bali Ha’I in our old high school gymnasium. We have one adult son, Michael, who has been married for more than 20 years to a wonderful woman, Carey, who comes from Scotland. They met in England while they were both on business. They had a fabulous wedding in Scotland and happily live about 15 minutes from our house here in Sharon! We have two incredible grandchildren, Zakk, eighteen and Isla fifteen years of age. Three fun pugs round off their family here in the states.

Although I am retired now, I worked for 44 years as an educator. I have taught everything from preschool to graduate school. My favorite job was being an elementary principal where I could work with children, teachers and families. My last job was as an elementary principal which I chose to do as I had a unique opportunity to open a brand-new school and build a community from the ground up. I was also fortunate to have a parallel career as a writer and editor of children’s books for many years.
