Dianne Sullivan:  

I live in Independence, still (again), still, and am married to Gary Sullivan, the answer to my prayers. I've attended, of course, our beloved St. Mary's; William Jewell (as their token Catholic); UMKC; and Hamilton Business College. I've worked in law since 1989 and have just retired from Morrow Willnauer Church where I had worked for the last 16 years. It was really a great place to finish my career. So Gary and I are now both retired and on to new adventures. You know I love, as I have always, children, elderly people, sewing, and animals, but scrapbooking, and gardening are my newest driving interests. I volunteer with the Alzheimer's Association, Gary volunteers with the Boy Scouts, and we together are involved in Beagle and Basset Hound Rescue of the Heartland.. We have just adopted a laboratory beagle and a discarded hunting hound. Having decided that they are home and no one else will ever hurt them again, they have acclimated and are, as a team, a total hoot! As far as music goes I love Mandy Patinkin, Five For Fighting, Jimmy Buffet, Billy Joel, Bob Reeder, most anything salsa and reggae (great to do housework by!). My favorite books include The Harry Potter Series, nearly anything Morgan Llywelyn wrote, but especially The Lion of Ireland and nearly anything Emily Bronte wrote, but especially Wuthering Heigh...Expand for more
