I am a resident of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, a great retirement community. My husband and I have two wonderful children and five loving grandchildren. I am a graduate of the University of Southern Mississippi; there I earned my BS and Master’s degree in Library Science. I was employed at the public library (The Library of Hattiesburg, Petal&Forrest County) for approximately twenty-six years.
