| Introduction | Born to a family surpassing "The Munsters", I endured most of the unthinkable, and came out alive at 21. Lived a bit, almost became a Playboy Bunny, but married a musician instead. Two grown sons (if they ever really "grow up"). Daniel Joseph, a jet pilot and Zachary David, a musical genius. I thought I did good. I raised them to know what they wanted and go and get it. Be kind along the way and love as much as possible. |
