I was born In Cicero and it has always been my home--family, school, church. My family consists of my husband of 62 years, David, our three children and their families. Living here is more than just paying taxes; it is being involved in the community and offering one’s help in building and maintaining a quality-of-life we all want. My experience as a contributing board member includes the CNY Girl Scouts Council, North Area Meals on Wheels, and the Northern Onondaga Public Library. I have been an active member in Hancock Field Development Corp, Literacy Volunteers, the Onondaga County HUD, among others. I am also proud to have been inducted into the North Syracuse Central School District Wall of Distinction.
