Norma's Story
Life
My Spouse
I met my spouse at a dance club, where else?? He had his own band. I used to go with him to his gigs and danced my life away. I still love to dance. This past January we were married 45 years..... and they said it wouldn't last!!!
My Kids
My oldest son got his PhD and is now a neuro-psychologist/research scientist. His specialty is brain injury. My youngest son graduated with a degree in Music and now sings demos and commercial jingles, plus he has a day job and is very successful. He sang in the beginning of the Pokemon cartoon a few years ago and at the beginning of the Pokemon movie that played in the theaters. He also sang on the Celebrex commercial, Herbal Essence shampoo, and Pillsbury commercials. He is also an entrepreneur and has his own website. He makes soaps, lotions, colognes, etc.
My Job
I was home all the years that my two sons were growing up. While at home, I did volunteer...Expand for more
work for the Cub Scouts, a nursing home, and English as a Second Language (ESL). When my kids were in junior H.S., I went to college, learned computers and office skills and got a degree. I worked as an executive secretary for the vice president of an international bicycle import company. In 2004, I volunteered again this time as a Big Sister for the Big Brothers/Big Sisters organization and loved it. You might say I'm a volunteer junkie. I have a stepson that I love as if I had given birth to him. He is a neurologist and a wonderful person.
My interests are: Playing chess, oil painting, watercolor painting, jigsaw puzzles, gardening, Latin Music and all other types of music. I especially love Gloria Estefan's "Mi Tierra". I love all her songs, but in this album my favorites are #1 and #8 plus the same title song as the cover. My other favorite singers are Billy Joel and Elton John. I love, love to dance.
