Why I joined   
Toastmasters:
   
  To help me to speak with confidence in front of a group of my peers &/or in a staff meeting. To help me, work on those butterflies that flutter about & to help me think better on my feet. I also joined because of my employee development plan @ Xerox.
     
What Toastmasters    
has done for me:
   
  It’s helped me gain more confidence. It’s helped me with gathering information & putting together a speech.
     
Hobbies:   
  My greatest hobby is my family. I enjoy the busyness of what a family brings. I also enjoy music and I've directed church choirs & I used to be in a singing group called “Sweet Adeline's”.
     
Favorite quote:

Something you    
probably don't   
know about me:
   
  I once dated a music director for a radio station in Eugene and also dated a football quarterback with U of O, who also is the nephew of Bing Cosby.

I had a Life Flashing before my eyes experience a couple of years ago, where my car was facing I-5 southbound with traffic going north bound, just after a heavy rain.
