After graduating I received a B.A. in Psychology from McGill University and a Masters of Arts in Early Childhood Education from Concordia University.

I married Robert in 1960.  We have three children and are the proud grandparents of four “princesses”.  My teaching career included working on a pilot project for McGill Montreal Childrens Learning centers and establishing my own company which implemented childcare programs for corporations.

I retired in 1992 when I moved to Boca Raton, Florida.  I immediately became active in community endeavors.  I am a Trustee & volunteer  of the Boca Raton Museum of Art, a Trustee & volunteer of LEAH (League of the Educational Awarenes of the Holocaust) & sit on several committees of the Boca Raton Community Hospital.

I delight in spending time with our son and daughter and grandchildren who moved to this area two years ago and visting our other daughter and grandchildren in NYC.

I take continuing education courses, love to travel, boat, exercise, bike and read.

We are indeed fortunate to be in good health and living in “paradise”.
