I am ready to celebrate my 45th anniversary on June 15th, 2019. Irma and I have seen many things in those years, from Savannah to Marietta and now Acworth, Ga. We now have three grandchildren, Savannah, Jackson, and Gabriel. They really add spice to our very active lives.

Irma and I are very active in the Children's Ministry at The Church at Liberty Square in Cartersville, Ga. We have know Pastor Lynn Miller for about sixteen years, starting at Mount Paran North in Marietta and now in Cartersville. What a great church...Pastor Ray Looney and the choir are such a treasure to our church, the orchestra and multi-media personnel add so much to the total worship experience. Pastor Jacob King is a phenomenal preacher and teacher, has a true shepherd's heart and loves his congregation.

I am so blessed with a great job at Costco Town Center store, I get paid to meet the nicest people in Kennesaw, my insurance and other benefits are top notch. I have two rebate checks every year, one from Costco and one from my Costco Citi Visa credit card. Those two checks usually cover our vacations to Hilton Head or other nearby attractions.

Did I mention how blessed I am to be living "on the green side of grass"? I am celebrating almost twelve years with my liver transplant. The medicine I take is now generic and costs me about $3.00 a month (family and Costco members say I'm worth it). Hey, I have those grandkids to help raise, I have to hang around for awhile. I'm going to borrow this from my daughter..."People will stare, make it worth their while".
