Born in Cold Spring, NY, I spent the first half of my life in the Hudson Valley area of NY. I attended high school at Our Lady of Lourdes in Poughkeepsie. I have 3 children, 2 living here in NC and our daughter in Phoenix, AZ with our 5 grandchildren. My husband, Dennis, and I moved here in 1995 and are now what the locals call "Damn Yankees" because we are staying here in the South! We love to explore the beautiful beaches and historical places ...
