Veronica's Story

You can find me on most any of the social networking sites as: leonardvms - but I mainly use Facebook. Life I was married in 1990 until his death in 2020. I am living in Brandon, MS. My sisters Jenny and Jacki also live in Mississippi. I had two children with my husband, Shaun, and raised my stepdaughter from the age of 3. I have 6 grandchildren and am raising my identical twin stepgranddaughters who were born in 2010. I have a degree in business and minored in psychology. I work in higher education, go to church regularly, love watching tv/movies, hanging out with family/friends, cooking, reading, gardening, learning, singing, visiting extended family and participating in the various activities of my children/grandchildren. I am smoke-free, drug-free, trans fat/high fructose corn syrup/nitrites/ artificial sweeteners/and for the most part chemical-free in midlife and went gluten-free in 2019 and it cured my fibromyalgia (miraculous). High School School was for the most part a huge drag for me. My parents had marital issues due to my father's alcoholism and life at home was frequently unpleasant.

es and choir all three years of high school. I have fond memories of all the people I sang with! College I went to Miami-Dade on a music scholarship after I graduated and then Palm Beach Atlantic Christian College (where I continued singing in ensembles and choir) but I never graduated. I went back to college in my 40s and got a degree in Business Technology. I am planning to finish a Master's Degree at some point, but life has a way of delaying my plans. Workplace I took typing in high school and learned about bookkeeping and office work from my mother while working at my Dad's store (Glyn's Service and Sales) during the summers. I worked at Zales Jewelers in Cutler Ridge mall when I was a senior and was a legal assistant until 2000 when I decided to go back to college. I worked for Mississippi State University for six years and have been with Millsaps College for more than five years now. Military I married a man who was a Supply Sergeant in the MS Army National Guard. He worked full-time active duty for 20 years and served in Iraq in 2003-2004. He came home a changed man and suffered from depression, anxiety and health issues. He retired from the Army in 2010 and went to work as fleet manager of MS Emergency Management. I was proud of his military service and his 2nd career as a public servant working for the state.
