About Me
I'm happily married to an oil painter. We have six kids between us - four are his, two are mine, one I helped raise so I really have three kids (if that makes any sense.) All of them are grown and on with their separarte, fascinating cult-free lives. I'm a clinical social worker in a maximum security prison where I work with mentally ill inmates. I have also written a book about my experiences in The Way called Losing The Way. It's been a very diffiicult boook to write but I've changed the names and identities of some people with the exception of VPW and myself. (I hope you won't recogize yourself.) Life has been good to me. Peace.
My Interests
I enjoy writing, reading, poetry, art, Shakespeare, trauma therapy, meditation, journaling, human nature, my dogs, my fish, my bird, horseback riding, golf, swimming. My deepest abiding interest lies in spirituality and my family - my childrenand my partner Lucky.

It is so good to see you here. I knew you from maryland before we ever went into the corps. Was Sue Matesic in your light bearers group. I know Christopher Brooks was. I was sitting with him in his office and told him about the site. He saw you and immediately wanted to send you a note. Anyway, happiness in life is so important. It sounds like you are happy. I am very happy to know this and to finally be able to say hi after many years. You have crossed my mind many times since then and it is a comfort to know things are good.

It is a blessing to see your face again.
I'd love to sit with you and share a cup of coffee
and catch up, too bad we are separated by most of the country , LOL.. if you ever out here, please look me (us ) up.
God bless you richly-Nancy
I was very happy to see you found this site. I love your daughter Kate - she is always a pleasure to talk to... such a deep thinker! You can see lots of pictures of my kids and grandchildren (from Ruth and Sean Finnegan) on my page. My son, John, and his wife Grace (DeNenno) are expecting their first baby in July. Life is good.
