Patricia's Story
Life
My life has been quite interesting. I have often been a woman ahead of the times.
I was a single Mom at age 19. I have one son age 40 and one grandson who just turned 18. I did the normal things like, having my son in T-ball, basketball, cub scouts and football. I often stepped up and helped with some of the coaching, when the Dads of the team were not available.
I bought the first of seveal homes that I have owned throught my lifetime, when I was in my mid-twenties, something that was very rare for a single woman, in 1974.
In 1976, my son and I moved to Macon, Georgia with my job at B&W. I spent 16 years in Georgia before returning to Kentucky. Unfortunately my son and grandson still live in Georgia.
I have been married and divorced once in the 1980's. I took my maiden name back as part of my divorce. As much as I wanted my marriage to work, he was the wrong man for me and it was the wrong time, for both of us...Expand for more

While I lived in Georgia, just for fun I also did some Extra work in the movies. There were many movies being filmed in Middle Georgia. I was lucky enough to be in several well known movies and made for TV movies, including Fried Green Tomatoes, Robo Cop 3, Freejack, My Cousin Vinny and White Lie.
When I returned to Kentucky I worked in a number of positions, the last being a Division Director for a not-for-profit organization that works with people with Develomental Disabilities.
I am currently single, and on disabliity, after working for 30 years. I spend my time, reading, playing on my computer, doing some limited container gardening, doing things with my sixteen year old niece, sitting on my front porch and trying to continue enjoying life. I still have a keen sence of humor and look forward to my Golden Years....OH WAIT...I am already in those Golden Years....Thank God for that.....just look at the alternative!
