Bio

I lived in Ripon for my entire life until marriage and college graduation. Married to husband, Patrick, since 1971. We have two sons who are happily married, gainfully employed, and proud parents of our five grandchildren - they live in Green Bay WI and Eagan MN. We have lived in Niagara WI for the past 40 years in our home that was built in 1928 and lovingly renovated over the years - the only thing the same is the address. I have been retired since May 31, 2016 from a 28-year career in Public Relations and Marketing for our area hospital. I enjoy retirement immensely - feels really good not to be governed by deadlines. I am an active member of a book club entitled Books, Brains and Bifocals - eight intelligent women who love to read! I also enjoy photography and spending time on the shores of Lake Superior, at concerts and art shows.
