Xavier's Story
Life
Dear Lord! Where do I begin? Left Riverveiw, went to Rutgers University, majored in Political Science, ended up as one of the top Senior Accountants for the State of New Jersey for twenty years before I became disabled. I have a beauty daughter named Imani which means "Faith" in Swahili. She's a journalist and graduated at the top of her class. Also she's tri-lingual. I've never married. Just lost the love of my life for the past nine years in Setember, 2006. We were less than a year from being married. I live in a lovely building which is specifically designed for seniors & persons with disabilities. Still have a great sense of humor (My seniors LOVE me!)
I'm still unapologetically brazen and and also still fiercely devoted to those I love, which means all of you! Hope some or all of you reach out soon. I'd love to reconnect! Oh yeah....Shadow & Storm send their love....my two beautiful black cats!
HEY!! Does any one out there know where I can get a duplicate yearbook )1972) & diploma! Mine where lost due to a ...Expand for more
unspeakable tragedy where everything I owned was destroyed! Money is no object for these items as they were some of my most precious memories!
Since my last post (which was clearly a year or two ago), my life has been pretty quiet & peaceful. Something I've longed for my whole life! JUST ONE HOUR OF PEACE LORD!!! Finally, I have been blessed with just that exactly! When my precious cat "Shadow" went to that big litter box in the sky (or wherever), I was so devastated that I couldn't even talk without breaking out in loud screeches of pain. Yoiu see, Shadow was my most faithful companion for 13 yrs (my fiance' was only with me for 9 yrs), and I was depressed beyond measure! My neighbors couldn't take it, so they went out & bought me the most beautiful, amusing kitten you've ever seen!! "Mayhem" is living up to his name & keeping me in stitches! Thank God for his wonderful creatures!
Until next time people! Special Shout Out to Malcolm Phillips, Jeannie (Balzer), Greta Samuel & most of all Arline Clayton (my roomie/sister)!
