My sisters and brother.

---

Sharon Beck lives in Seattle with her husband Joe.  She is a retired School Psychologist/therapist and expert in Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.  She would pick up and travel anywhere tomorrow. As the oldest child, she had a lot on her shoulders but she still loves us.

Janice O'Mahony, married to Michael, who has put up with my family's boisterous conversations and cross-talk for years.  He remains bemused and perplexed.  We live in Freeland on Whidbey Island.

Ann Cummings lives in Twisp, Washington with her husband Jerry Whites where she raises and rides horses and fixes community problems like nobody's business.  Brave and tough.  Don't mess with her. She is a retired Special Education Teacher.

Pat Cummings lives in Tacoma with his spouse, Paula. He is a retired Public School Administrator.  Pat can do anything technical, including putting out fascinating podcasts on books, politics and, occasionally, poetry.  He is my webmaster.

Carol Cummings, lives in Seattle with her spouse Lance Tichenor. She retired as Chief of Police in Bothell, Washington but her true identity is as an artist, gardener and force for good.  She would pick up and go anywhere tomorrow with Sharon.
