Welcome to my site. I will be Chronicling the construction of our new home. Here is a brief history of my experiance in this area. I moved every few years as a child. As an adult I stayed in one house for 25 years, but helped remodel it four times. From a minor bath redo to adding an entire second story to the house. Now my husband and I have moved to AZ to care for my elderly parents and are undertaking to be the owner/builders of a custom home. Some people don't like change but I guess I'm not one of them. Or perhaps it is just limited change I like. To my husband's current dismay I helped build a 4000 square foot house in Romania in 2001. We took it from slab to fully furnished in 11 days. I therefore have meager patience for the pace of building here in Arizona.

A Life Well Lived!

My mother, Mary Anne Lincoln, passed away on July 6th, 2006. She was 79 1/2 years old and had led a full life. She married her high school sweetheart and toured the world with him, first in the military and then as tourists. She enjoyed ballroom dancing, square dancing, curling, ice skating, scuba diving, playing bridge, reading, gardening, cooking, and sewing. Lots more to be said about her... Below are two of our most recent photos of her. We are having services for her today and tomorrow...I'm sure I'll learn a few things I never knew about her!

Such a nice tribute to your mother Linda..it's hard to lose your mother but just knowing she is with the Lord and no more suffering [as He has promised us] does help ease the sorrow right now. ..and no one can take away all the memories or her. She will surely be missed.

A wonderful lady! I have fond memories of her when we were in college (especially carrot cake with green carrots!), at your wedding (and all her worries!) and when I visited them in VA while in grad school and in AZ!! May God comfort you and the whole family.
