Born in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada. In Canada, I lived in Saskatoon Saskatchewan, Montreal Quebec, Trenton and Brighton Ontario. We moved to the USA in 1965 after my father left the RCAF to fly for a US airline. I lived in South San Francisco and Fremont California. Then to New Jersey to live in Sparta and Montague. At 18, I returned to Canada and lived in Calgary and Claresholm, Alberta. Then in 1988 moved to Richmond British Columbia.In 2009, I returned to the USA to live in southern California with my new husband. He says we are here for good as the weather is too good to leave :)

My mother left Mo and went to Ga where she met my father. He was in the Army at that time. They moved to Ill. where I was born, then on to Virginia, North Carolina and France then back to my mother's family home in Missouri. I lived on the family homeplace (it has been in the family for 100 years) until I married. I still live in Missouri about 25 miles from the family homeplace which my son now owns.
