Left Catholicism at 18. Told parents I don;t believe in God when I was 16 years old.My mother was the CCD Teacher so we had to attend every Wed night. I hated it and every chance I got I made fun of it..

New Life and New Family

I came to NY on a prayer. I wanted to discover this side of the world. I also wanted to have a new start. Had a job and a place to live. I had to cut my hair for the job. I also had to pay more money than I had in the bank and was creating a new life. Met all new preople. I met the editor fthe National Alliance. Dan Friedman. He wanted to meet the name behind the articles and letters to the editor. I was a revolutionary. I was Bill Gaboury's student and then Harriet Hoffman. i was lucky to hasve such wonderful leaders to guide me.
