ungest son, Tim, was in a car accident when he was 14 and lost sight in his right eye. He committed suicide on his 18th birthday because he was unable to join the military. We all still miss him a lot.
I'm finally going back to school, and should have my Associate's in 2009.
I still make costumes and go to Science Fiction conventions when I can. I also do living history, making most of my clothing. I made the dress I'm wearing in my photo.

I hope to hear from some of you, and hear that God has blessed your lives, too.
