My non-biological family: Fran and Bruce, Tom, Sumner, Sheila and Sam, John and Kathy, and Christine have been sources of love, empowerment, support and caring for many years.  They and my children make my life joyful every day.

 

I have been very blessed with the teachers - both traditional and transformational - I’ve had in my life.  To each of the following I thank for contributing to who I am as a person and especially as a teacher:  Dotty Gonson, Vic Silvestri, Don and Gay Lumsden, Mike Woodnick, the late Pete Eastman, Werner Erhard, Marjie Parrot, Randy McNamara, Sandy Robbins, Paul Turro, Julia Dederer, Bob Fritz, and the trainers of Insight.
