service provided to our community. Additionally, she serves on a

the Ohio AIRS Board, the Montgomery County Collaborative Partners,

the United Way staff, she worked in early childhood education, but she
has always known that her calling in life was to be a social worker.

Her favorite holiday is Christmas, which is good, considering

stepdaughter, three grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews.
