Instrument: Singer
Music background:
Among my favorite memories are the times spent singing with family members throughout the years. There was always lots of harmonizing, so I think I picked it up by osmosis. My Mom and Dad sang in a gospel quartet when I was very young, and Dad regaled us as children with his versions of old country tunes.
Interests:
I love to travel and am planning a trip to Turkey this spring. I hope to do an extended road trip around the US in a year or so. (Can I phone in for band gigs?) I love sitting around the campfire with friends and family. I'll read just about anything, like to make art, play scrabble, and plan parties. I also have two fabulous grandchildren who are the lights of my life!
Born:
Malvern, Arkansas. Grew up in Battle Ground, WA with some stops in Portland and Ridgefield. Now loving life near the heart of Vancouver. WA.
