I am a retired special education teacher with a BA from the University of Notre Dame and a MS from Andrews University. I also have five years experience as a special education administrator and am an Orton-Gillingham trained reading specialist. My husband and I have three children and ten grandchildren, five of whom attend St. Mary's! We are parishioners at St. Anthony in Buchanan where I am a cantor. I enjoy hiking, kayaking, singing, reading, and going to the beach. We love to spend our vacations on the beach of Michigan's beautiful great lakes. I am happiest when I am outside! I am thrilled to be part of the wonderful St. Mary's family. St. Mary's is indeed a very special place!
