I have always loved to sing. I sang in every choir I could all through my school years. I
sang with the Susquehanna Valley Chorale in Selinsgrove, PA for 12 years. While
there I went on a six-country tour of Europe, singing in the cathedrals of the cities we visited. On Cape
Cod I have always sung in church choirs, and I have sung with the Chatham Chorale twice before. I
currently live in East Harwich with my companion of 27 years, Jim, and our beautiful Maine coon cats. I
have retired from work and currently pursue a very busy schedule of volunteering, church work, playing
duplicate bridge, singing, and enjoying the company of many old friends. Cape Cod will always be my
home.
