Today is my little girl's Birthday.  The family got together last night for a time of Celebration.  Stephaine, is the oldest of my two children.  I can not begin to tell you how Proud I am of her.  She has always been a loving daughter and always there to lend a helping hand to whom ever may need help. After College she was ready to start her teaching career. Then Maice came along (my first Grandbaby)  I kinda persuaded her to go to real estate school after Macie was born.  You know the line, you can work at your own pace, be your own boss, make your own schedule, you'll have more time to spend with Macie and when she starts school then you can go back to teaching.  So she did, that was 13 years ago and she has been in REAL ESTATE SINCE THEN.   She got her Brokers licenses about 4 years... 02/05/2010

Happy 4th of July!!!! I am Proud to be an "AMERICAN" and live in this land that God has so richly blessed.  May GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY and their families. When my son was called to serve in Iraq in 2005 my Daughter, Stephanie and My Best Friend Dura Anne placed YELLOW RIBBONS around THE BIG MAPLE TREE at my Office, USA REALTY.  When my son returned home I was interviewed by the local paper and ask about the Ribbons around the tree and how long I would keep them now that my son was home.  I told the Lady Reporter that I planned to leave them Till all our Troops come Home and so the Tree has never been without YELLOW RIBBONS!  HAVE A WONDERFUL AND SAFE 4TH OF JULY!!      "GOD BLESS AMERICA"                                                                                               MY GR... 07/03/2009
