From Lynda: "I am a woman full of gratitude! Being raised in foster care pretty much my entire upbringing, I am just thankful for the blessings in my life now; my family, our good health and togetherness. In many ways I have overcome my traumatic childhood of abuse and abandonment, the remnants are and will always be there, but I learn to live with them the best I can, and feeling the gratitude that I do, helps me to do just that. Aside from spending time with family and friends, helping others is one of my greatest joys! One of my passions is singing, I very much enjoy singing at small events with my husband. Another passion is water activities, whenever I can, I want to be in, on or under the water, I scuba dive whenever I can, and enjoy snorkeling, swimming, and any kind of boating! I love to golf and enjoy traveling as well, oh, and my guilty pleasure of watching scary movies!"
