Forced to retire 8 years ago from Leukemia diagnosis, I was a Private School and Daycare Supervisor/ Teacher for before and after School programs in our public Schools. I did that for 16 years, before that I made gauges for in the dashes of cars and trucks.

My hubby Mike also a member here, is a Supervisor/Forman for an industrial Contractor, they do demolition, do the padwork for cell towers, and concrete work, they run sewer laterials, and repair and pipe works under ground that fail in the streets. He runs any type of equipment on a job site, he welds, he reads blueprints, you name it he does it. He’s been there since 1984. His Father was a local builder and he acquired the same skills. We just finished completely renovated our home.



We also restore our own classic cars and antique tractors.
