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.
Mt. Lugo Luge/Tubing Competition Have you ever wondered what to wear in 10 degree weather to judge a tubing competition? After figuring that out and adding some "hot hands" glove warmers to the mix, I was ready! Upon cheking in, one of the competing teams comprised of local firefighters and I stopped to pose for a photo. Not only were these guys life savers this past summer when the horrible forest fire blazed down through the valley causing us to be evacuated from our homes for days, but they are fearless in their sledding techniques as well! After competing, I awarded individual and team members with medals for their accomplishments. When the official photos come out for the newspaper, I will add them for all to see. In the mean time, a big thank you to Dall Plumbing and Big O Tires for their sponsorship for the event. The Chamber of Commerce volunteers were wonderful and put together a day to remember!
