Favorite Memory Here at Fox
Working in Minthorn with Patty Findley provided too many memories to recall. She is the funniest person I know. She is also one of my best friends. And I met her here at GFU.
Favorite place to hang out in Portland/Newberg
My friend's firepit in their back yard. Or their barn, riding Sarge.
Family & Pets
I have been married for 30 years to my junior high first, real love. His name is Wade. My lovely daughters, Brenna and Kalie. My son, Jesse, was born in Papua New Guinea. My little friend, Zoe, once told me that I should be a cashier at a pet store because I had so many animals:
Two dogs: Fonzey and Murphy
One stray cat: Smokey ~ He showed up on our porch this winter.
One Jenday Conure named Fiona - she says "cat" and "pretty bird" - she dances and flirts with Alvin
One grouchy Lilac Crowned Amazon Parrot named Alvin Q. Surefoot
Hobbies or other interesting facts
I love to read! I also love independent films. (I am a huge fan of GFU's film festival. And this year starred in one with Tim Timmerman called "Fluff Fluff is Dead. It's on YouTube!) I have recently re-entered the horse world and ride several times a week. I am the webmistress for professional baseball players: Hiram Bocachica and Ramon Santiago. I once won a sofa on the "Regis and Kathi Lee" show.
Typical Coffee Cottage drink you order
Summer time: Iced Americano, triple, with cream. Winter time: Triple (12 oz.) Americano with cream.
Favorite Scripture Verse "He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When others are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort that God has given us." 2 Corinthians 1:4
