My Mom, my Dad and my Husband. My Mom because she was a great role model for what a woman can be. Good mother, grandmother and career woman. She would have LOVED her great-grandbabies and they would have LOVED her! My Dad because he is the kindest, most thoughtful, and most generous man I have EVER known, despite his tough time recovering from being one of the Chosin Frozen in Korea. My husband because he is my best friend and has loved me for all these years, NO MATTER....

About me: I grew up in Tucson, went to Palo Verde High School and in 1989 we moved to beautiful Colorado. I am 54 years old and married to my best friend. We have 2 daughters, one son and a daughter-in law who we love just like she was ours.We also have 3 grandkids, including a grandson born in January 2002, identical (or so the doctors say!) twin granddaughters born in September 2006 and 2 grand-dogs!
I have been battling brain tumors since 2005 and have had 4 surgeries, the last one at the MAyo Clinic in Rochester MN. I have a droopy left eyelid that I hope will get fixed after the first of the year either at the Mayo in Jacksonville Florida or Phoenix Arizona!! Doesn't keep me down, but I do hate my pictures....

Alanna and Brenna Sing Skyler Loves his Brother Happy 26th Birthday to Crystal
Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to meet up with old friends I've lost touch with from school, old jobs, and other places.
