Well, I am certainly looking forward to this. After High School, I went to University of Maryland and lived on campus most of that time. However, there was no social media back then and I have lost touch with most of those friends. Plus I moved to New York in 1978, so my Northwood roots are some of my oldest ones.

I had a helluva career in Broadcasting and Advertising in NYC that spanned 40 years. I have two fabulous adult sons that are 34 and 30 that I am so proud of. (I caught one of the last trains out of the station when it came to childbirth.) Both of my sons are married; one lives right outside of Boston and is in the Medical Research field. The other changes lives every day as a Public School Music Teacher in St Johns County, FL.

I split my time between my apartment in Manhattan (which I bought a long time ago) and St. Augustne, FL. I am an ardent Democrat and spend my spare time trying to make the world a better place. I am divorced after 30 years of marriage. My "go to" sports are swimming laps, yoga, hiking and city walking. I hope to resume my traveling "post covid." I consider myself a theist from a religious standpoint and am fairly active with the Presbyterian Church.

I look forward to seeing all of you. And a special shoutout to Ricky White, who is a fellow Democrat that I see from time to time in Florida.
