GB Profile: Ann

I was raised in Tennessee & Florida. I went to high school in Cocoa. Two years after graduation I got married and I lived most of my life in Orlando, but now live in North Carolina by the Blue Ridge Parkway. What a beautiful view we have of the mountains.

I am a retired hair stylist. I now work part-time for a TV show based in Mount Airy, NC . I help on their website, but it was designed by another company before I started work there. Several of the photos taken during the shoots were taken by me. I love the show and working there.

I have my own website design company. Among others I do an unofficial website for the Cococa High Class of 1964.

My Friend Bernie

Ann,

Happy New Year to you too! I'm sorry we don't have that much in common, but I became an Interior Designer once in my career and then a Floral Designer.

Hello, Ann,

I recognized Brenda Lee right away in your pictures. Donna Fargo hasn't changed much over the years either. I always loved her song, "I'm the Happiest Girl in the Whole USA" and used to sing it all the time, too. Glad to see that you like Country music....I do too!

Do you belong to a Red Hat Society chapter??? If not, you really should. They are everywhere!
