I have two adult children that live close by. Family is very important to me. I enjoy many hobbies, such as collecting seashells, watching and identifying birds, basket making, netting and crocheting, and jewelry making. I love dancing, swimming and snorkeling. | |||

My callings in the church has been ward missionary, Young Women's Presidency | My career has always been as a caregiver. I started as a candy stripper, was a nurses aid for about two years, then became an LVN and then RN. My nursing was in the hospital and home. I am now retired from nursing. I am currently an In Home Support Service (IHSS) worker, providing care for one of my adult children. I used my RN license for 20 years, as an Early Intervention Specials (EIS) in an Early Start Program. As an EIS, I would go into the homes and work with the parents and children on child development or on their specific developmental needs. | ||
My callings in the church has been ward missionary, Young Women's Presidency, Primary teacher, activities committee and Relief Society President. I must say, being the RS President was very rewarding and challenging at the same time. When I was Relief Society President, I did not find much time for Family History and am very excited to be doing it again. | |||
My son and I did a lot of work in the cemeteries and online at Find A Grave. We would go to a cemetery, clean several headstones and then take pictures of the headstone. When I returned home, I would check to see if they were already in the system or not. If not, I created their memorial and downloaded the picture. Sometimes they had a memorial but no picture of the headstone, so I would add the picture. I have heard from many people, how happy they were to see a memorial for their loved one. | My son and I did a lot of work in the cemeteries and online at Find A Grave.
