Taganan
Age 63, married, was a schoolteacher, moved from Ithaca, NY to the South [not much snow] to stay, so qualify as a Damned Yankee. Like sci-fi, politics, fishing, gardening and the computer. Church is non-denominational affiliated with Simunye Apostolic Missions of Westville, South Africa. It gets a smile when I say I'm in an African church.
