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.

Salmon, it's what's for dinner!

 More Alaska and more fishing! Today's host was none other than Andrew Chadwick with Chadwick's Fishing Guide Service. We got up at 3:45am to drive out to meet our guide on the Kenai River for sockeye fishing. Of all the fishing I've done in my life, I had never fished for sockeye before. It's very similar to fly fishing though.  We suited up with our waders and fished from the banks of the river. BRRRR.  But sooo worth it! As you can see, we limited out on salmon...more families getting fed!
