Focused on Breaking Break Program to the Community

I was born in Georgia, married, and spent 33 years in the western US, living in multiple states. My husband was a University President, and I raised two wonderful children, worked on many community projects, and did a lot of entertaining.   I returned to Georgia and worked in various positions for a Retirement Community for 6 years.  I remarried in 2004, and I again moved around the US.  We moved to Abingdon in 2008 and loved the beautiful community.  Walt’s Job ended in 2010, and we returned to GA.  In 2014, we found land, returned,  built our home, and became an active part of the community.  I have been President of the Abingdon Garden Club for two years and have just left the position of President of the Washington County Master Gardeners for 4 years.  I am also an artist and love to paint.  I am a member of the Arts Depot and the Holston Mountain Artisans.  Thus, my love for art, gardening, and cooking.  We have been active   Sinking Springs Presbyterian Church members, working with the Congregations Care Committee and the Session and Landscape Committee and singing in the choir.
