Let’s start with a little bit about yourself. Do you have family? Where do you live?
I do have a family. I have been married for 100 years--not quite, but a long time to my sweetheart, we have two children, three grandchildren and many bonuses who've just added on, who call us Mama, or Pops, and/or Grandma, and Pops. So we have a village.
