About Me

My name is Sassy

I am employed at a local nursing home...and may I add it is the most rewarding job I have ever had .I work in the activity department & get to do all the fun things with my residents.

I can't wait to get to work ...I think of it as going to be with my other family.

I love to ham it up & sing Karaoke ...I love to laugh and have a good time.

My motto is to go out laughing with a big fat candy bar in one had and a karaoke mic in the other (lol)

 

I have lived in Central Florida since 1959......have seen alot of changes....good & bad.

Can't see myself living anyplace else!

    The other day I was thinking back on my life here in the Orlando area. I have been living here since 1959. I am just amazed at the changes that have taken place. Some good...some not so good. Life was so simple back then. During the week we came...

    I met Sassy when I did the story on Ginger the Entertainer and I have to say that if everyone who worked in a nursing home was as caring and passionate, we'd all be so much better off. Sassy was first exposed to the world of the elderly when her mom became ill. She had enough courage to follow her heart and focus her energy on improving their lives, first as a volunteer, then as a career. She is one of the many unsung heroes in our community. Welcome to Growing Bolder, Sassy. You've been doing it yourself for years!

Music is a big part of my life.

I like 50's & 60's some country and folk music.

I karaoke at the nursing home I work for and every once in a while Ginger an entertainer we have come in will invite me up to do a duo with her...a real treat for me .

Thats what gave me my intrest in music.

Heroes

My mom is my greatest hero.

She struggled thru life raising me after my father walked out on us.

She was disabled and sick as far back as I can remember.

She never gave up on life and fought a battle no one should have to with her pain and suffering.

She passed away six years ago and I'm sure with a heroes welcome up above.
