Verified by Mariners Inn.
I have lived in Detroit for 62 years. I graduated from Central High School and I worked at Detroit Diesel for 9 years and then moved on to the food industry. I have been at Mariners Inn for over two years. I've been getting my life back to being myself- a truly caring person. In my free time, I like to watch movies, go for walks, watch TV and go to sports games.
I found myself in my current situation after my mother and father passed away a week apart. That's when I started my downhill fall in 2008. I lost my mother and father's house in 2015 and became homeless. I didn't have anywhere to go.
My goal is to have a house I call my home. I want to invite my kids and my grandkids over.
My happiest memories are from visiting Washington D.C., Cedar Point, the Detroit Repertory Theatre, Gull Lake, the Empire State Building in New York, and from going to see the Detroit Lions and Pistons play.
I'm raising money for reliable transportation so I can to work and school.
I'm raising money for kitchen appliances and a queen sized bed so I can cook for my children and have a bed to sleep in.
I'm raising money for furniture so I can make our house a home.
