Seven years ago I retired from the Ohio Department of Transportation, District 11, with thirty- three years with the last twelve years as Construction Secretary, a job that I really enjoyed. Over the years I worked part-time jobs with two years at Casual Corners at the New Towne Mall, eight and half years at the Holiday Inn and Nine years at the Schoenbrunn Inn. I have been single for twenty-six years and I have three sons, three grandchildren, and three great grandchildren. The light of my life is my Grandson, Dylan, who will be in the sixth grade at Dove Middle School this year.  I enjoy having Dylan and doing things with him. To keep busy in my retirement I have four wonderful loveable dogs. My very favorite sport is never missing a game with the NBA Heat (CHAMPS).  I also enjoy Ohio State Football. Two years ago I started a group, Girls Night Out, with friends and now we meet once a week at different restaurants for dinner together.  At present there are ten girls who enjoy fun together and great friendships. I enjoy having all the girls over to my home for cookouts and dinner.
