Mrs. Springfield USOA 2021. Be the change, be a volunteer has been a lifelong passion of mine . Having been born an orphan back in the 60’s, I went through foster care as well as the adoption process here in the United States. Though I felt as an outsider looking in most of my life since I was placed with a family who had biologically born children in the family, I nevertheless, feel blessed that I had a roof over my head and food to eat. Having a family of my own is of high importance to me. Being able to overcome the diagnosis of infertility due to cancer cells within my reproductive organs, my husband Bruce and I were ecstatic to welcome the birth of our daughter in 2006. Feeling as if my life is bountiful I give back to others by serving as a volunteer for numerous organizations and helping orphans in need. We have personally provided and delivered care packages and supplies to orphans in Mexico and Africa. I feel that providing personal attention in the form of a party for the orphans is integral to providing hope for children to see that others do care. I am thrilled to be married to the man of my dreams, a mother to my miracle child and the referee to our two black labs.
It's a Winter Wonderland!  I was honored to participate in the annual Conifer Winterfest Mount Lugo Luge Festival.  I'm pretty sure a great time was had by all.  Swooshing down the mountain in various costumes while hanging on for dear life, making snow sculptures, sipping hot chocolate, listening to great local bands and having a genuine good time was on the day's agenda.  The highlight for me was handing out the trophies and announcing the winners of the various events...seeing the look of sheer joy on the kids' faces was simply priceless.
