Occupation Painter and writer
Location Sandusky, Ohio, United States
Introduction I am a painter and a writer. I love to learn and am especially devoted to my Catholic faith and sharing hope with all. I am married to my best friend, Danny "Coach" Roth. I have two grown daughters and four grandchildren plus one great grandson, and three step-grandchildren, and three grown step children. I am the eldest of four, and we are very close along with their extended families. I live on Lake Erie one mile from Cedar Point, the home of the greatest roller coasters in the land. I watch sports with my husband, especially the Cleveland Indians, and I am a fan of Notre Dame Football and OSU anything! I consider myself handicapped by oversensitivity, but one could perceive this characteristic to give me gifts of sensitivity to others, for which I am thankful. I completed 46 years as an educator in Ohio Schools but am now a full time painter. I also like to crochet, knit, work with quilting and teach painting. I belong to the Port Clinton Art Club and the Firelands Area Art League and show my paintings locally and in my studio by request.
