A match made in heaven — and a life built with grit, love and intention. A milestone of a story filled with 5 children, chaos of great‑grandchildren, and a family tree that keeps growing with laughter through this wild, beautiful life. We had a business together for 16 yrs, then we built our Tire/Auto repair centers, 30 yrs. Found love!! We created a home in Phx in an Old West-a Dynamite Shack. It's fun, creative, and an abundance of love. We love to travel & meet people! What a ride!

We want to donate it to our fave non-profits... we'd split it up between the needs in our area of Phoenix AZ. Our decades in the automotive and tire industry grounded us, but our souls found purpose in service. Helping Hands for Single Mothers: donated vehicles and repairs, helping women rise, study, work, and raise their children with dignity. We keep the hope alive in their dreams of independence. The Community Tire Salsa Garden, ten years of over 40,000lb grown yearly & donated locally.
