My family is the most important piece of me and my greatest inspiration...First, my husband Tom who has been a part of me for more than half my life, and has always encouraged me to be the best at what I do. My sons...my firstborn son Tommy who was a kind and gentle young man who loved life, his family, fiancee Linda, and friends. He gave so much to all who knew him, but he died in a tragic auto accident at the young age of 23 years on July 29,1997...now the worst day of our lives...we love and miss you so much Tommy... One day we will be together again. My second son, Billy, inspires me to be as creative as he is. He is the light of my life. Not only is he talented --- he is the lead singer and guitar player in an up and coming rock and roll band and a reporter on staff at his college newspaper --- he is a good kid as well. He inherited his father's musical talent and writing skills, but inherited my physical features (poor kid).
This is a picture of our family taken at Billy's high school graduation in May 1997. Left to right is my beloved Tommy, me, Billy, and Tom
