I’m born and raised in New Orleans. Married for 33 years with three now married daughters. I was a domestic engineer and my spouse in IT. American Express relocated us to Phoenix, AZ in the late 80’s for him to work on the team to develop and launch World Wide Optima. In 2010 he encouraged me to learn computing. We took a Ruby on Rails course together. I did not do well. Of the 40 students in the class, I was the only one who wasn’t a programmer. lol My husband passed away in December 2011 of Neuroendocrine Pancreatic Cancer two months after Steve Jobs who lost his life to the very same type of cancer.

Since then I’ve devoted my life to my grandchildren, church and Texas Hold’em. My daughters live in different states so i’m always traveling between Arizona, Massachusetts, Louisiana or Texas. I found Replay three months ago, after not playing in my regular league for four months… This is a great site, structured well and I’ve made a number of friends. The staff have been tops, responding to my queries. Great job y’all!
