Born and raised in the 'burbs of Detroit. Went to Oakland University in Rochester, MI.

Moved to Florida in 1987 to Orlando. Folks had moved previous year to Sun City Center below Tampa.

Single, fun, love to read and write, walking, movies and music.

Want to stay healthy as I age. Had lost 70 lbs in 1996 (just simply due to inactivity and over-eating) with Dr. Dean Ornish's Eat More! Lose Less and still believe in what cardiologists say where dieting is concerned.
