Graduated from FSU in 1964 and was commissioned a 2LT, US Army, the day of graduation. Attended WAC Officer Basic, Ft McClellan, AL and held assignments in the WAC Hqs, Ft McClellan, Ft Lee, VA, and Walter Reed Army Medical Center prior to being sent to Vietnam in Jan 1968.

wonderful country life in a small town (Melrose) on a lake in northern Florida. Became very active in the Melrose Volunteer Fire Department where my husband was chief and I was an EMT/volunteer firefighter for many years. Moved to Melbourne, FL to be closer to my Mother in 2002.
Lost my husband to cancer a little over two years ago from exposure to agent orange in Vietnam.
I stay very active volunteering with the Brevard Zoo, VA Clinic, church thrift shop, and Hands On Wildlife Safari.
