ivorced. I am looking forward to starting a new life. The wildest thing I did in school was wear a friends "colors" from a Motor Cycle Club. Mr Ray took me to the office(again)and made me take them off, also with another lecture from him. Mr Ray was a very nice person and i gave him a hard time,and im sorry for that. I didnt fit in at Bentley. I came from Detroit(i was a Detroit kid, not a Livonia kid)The one thing I would do differently,is never get married.The weirdest job I ever had was working at a reptile store. My obsession is with animals and wildlife rescue. My best friend would tell you I'm crazy, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as very responsible and down to earth. 2024* My daughters kathie 50 and michelle 41 still live close to me..i have 4 grandchildren,32.24.20 and 13. I have a great granddaughter she is 3 and another great granddaughter due in july.(mike and ashley are their parents) I have a terrific partner (my soul mate)(mart)we have been together 8 years..we have a house in Livonia and we have a crazy doberman..im enjoying life being retired, spending time with mart and my awesome family..
