College students around the world experienced a major disruption because of COVID.

Wearing masks was required and at home computer based learning was necessary.

Campus was closed and students were sent home but they stuck with it and still graduated on time.

Facing Cancer

My husband Ross has been diagnosed with multiple types of cancer in the past year.

His courage and faith while facing multiple surgeries and treatments has been so inspiring to me.

Knowing just how precious and fragile life is gives me a deeper appreciation 

for this remarkable, loving man I married. 

We discovered that they don't make hospital beds quite long enough for Ross.

                                      I have been richly blessed to be married to

                      this unselfish, funny, kind, thoughtful and hard-working man.

                                                    He is the love of my life!
