I am an outgoing, upbeat Senior with high Spirits. I enjoy working with People. I enjoy projecting my positive energy onto others..
I am often asked? "How do you managed to keep your winning smile?" I respond, I get up every morning, irregardless of aches and pains, and get moving. I always say to myself, Jo-Anne you can do it, and you are going to have a good day.
