Her fondest memories were during the invitation meets she and her friends would build forts in the Y in places where they were not supposed to be. We use to eat Jello mix straight from the box so that our fingers would turn green, red and yellow. Also, the banquet was always loads of fun.

Married -

Membership Administrator.

Swims on occasion with the local Masters swim team.

Fond memories were - hanging out with friends at the meets, swim-a-thons where they didn't get out of the water until 1 or 2 in the morning (she doesn't think that she moved for days after that), an award that Bill gave her for "What event are we on?" She was so excited to be swimming that she would loose track of time and forget when she was supposed to be swimming so she would have to ask what event are we on.

She has nothing but great memories from her time on the team and is very pleased to know that things are still going well for the Marlins.
