What is Fab Over 40?

Learn More

What do you love about being over 40?

The wisdom learned and ability to share that with the kids and grandkids. The power of knowledge and loce accumulated to overcome the hardships were experiencing.

How do you stay fabulous?

Determination and pride and the need to stay as healthy as possible for my very ill husband. He needs the best of me and so do the kids and grandkids. Ill health has taken almost everyone from me but I refuse to let that happen to me.

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would pay off the debt my husband's memory care home is costing me and piling up and give him the celebration of life (funeral) that he deserves. I would hire a ghost writer to journal our story of love and determination! I would take all the kids and grandkids on a much deserved vacation!
