About me
Why have I been a JP for over 30 years?
As a Justice of the Peace, I help couples move from a bond of friendship to a legal bond of marriage emphasizing that compromise is what makes marriage a lasting one. I meet interesting people I could not have met any other way. Although most couples are from United States of America, I've learned about Ghana, Liberia, Russia, Brazil, Equador and more from couples marrying in Massachusetts.
Being a Justice of the Peace brings me in contact with the nicest people who often have ceremonies in locations familar to them but not to me. I I love all the experiences.
My life has been varied, but more than 30 years as a JP have been years I'll never forget.
From being a teacher in middle and high school, I jumped to being a COBOL programmer. A few years later, I received Certification in Gerontology and began working with senior centers, with the blind, and with hospice. Next, I ventured into real estate primarily as a property manager. After 13 years, I slid into retirement and now volunteer in several places. Life is ever changing and exciting. I will always be a Justice of the Peace.
