At home: My 3 terrific kids - Holly (14), Libby (10), and Joey (8); are my life. As a family, we love sports. I coach the kids' softball, soccer, and basketball. They also participate in volleyball, football, and track. Playing softball, volleyball and being a part of the Winfield Sports Association Board has been something I have enjoyed over the years. We have two mixed breed dogs (Bonnie and Clyde). I am very blessed with great parents, family, and friends.
