Sobre IBD

Boredom never set in. She raised her six children while maintaining a family business of real estate and rentals. She painted far into the early morning hours after a long day behind the counter at Montgomery Ward. At age 51, she undertook and earned a Science degree from Pan American University in Edinburg. She and her husband travel the world studying cultures, collecting fine art, photographing wildlife, bird-watching. They began early this year to celebrate their golden anniversary. Staying busy keeps the couple young, and retirement is viewed as something for old people, something far into the future.
