Personal: Began flying with AA in 1970: based in LGA, BNA, DFW, and IDF. I've been married to Bill since 1973, and we have 2 daughters, 3 grandchildren, and 1 brand new great-granddaughter. Since 1978, we have owned a hot-air balloon and have travelled across the USA, participating in competitions. For many years, Bill was a nationally ranked pilot and won the North American Championship twice. We still love to travel, and cruise, and recently went to Iceland with our Delta pilot daughter, Maggie, and her FedEx pilot husband, Jasen.

Kiwis Goals: I hope to grow the membership of the KIWI Club by increasing awareness of the Kiwis in active FA bases and encouraging outreach and participation by our current members. It would be a fun challenge to incorporate a membership rive, with current members recruiting new members and rewarding the members who recruit the most.

I would also like to encourage more events and opportunities for classmates to spend time together at the convention. Many of our members joined well after their 50th anniversary and have missed their reunion celebration.
