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.

Conifer Colorado VFW pancake breakfast
I'm not sure why they call it a pancake breakfast when there was so much more!  Bacon, sausage, muffins, green chili!!!!! If you would like more information, you can visit their site at http://vfw12009.org/  I think my husband and daughter liked the sausage the best.  Me?  I was too busy working and meeting the wonderful volunteers, veterans and patrons.  (I do have to say they had some great coffee!)  They put a donation bucket out for me to fundraise so I can make care packeges to send to orphans in Mexico and Africa.  I can't wait to go shopping for these wonderful little kids!  Thank you so much VFW and Conifer residents for making these care packages possible with your donations.
