Education   (request update)
High School: Willingboro High School in Willingboro, NJ class of 1978
 
Activities & Accomplishments:
My biggest accomplishment is to have raised 3 sons to manhood. They all are doing just fine and are prepared to allow God to have His way in their lives.
Best Memories:
I had the priviledge of being disciplined at times by Mrs. Evelyn Lewis (the mother of Carl Lewis). She was a very strong black women who had accomplished her goals and funneled her remaining resources into her children and was a true giver of herself to other kids as well. As a result I witnessed greatness at its birth. THANKS MRS. LEWIS, for never judging just caring for me. And I do remember your Olympics reel to reel movies. I was home one day cleaning and the familiar sound of the ticking of the home movie was on a Lifetime Nike commercial and I had to sit down for a moment and realize that I had been touched by greatness and didn't even know it. This sound that I had heard so many times when helping Mrs. Lewis with Physical Ed stuff to keep me out of trouble.
Experience
I currently work with Atlantic City Rescue Mission as Women's Ministry Night Counselor
