She subsequently moved to Florida and worked in journalism for three decades completing her career as the deputy managing editor of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
In January, she assumed a new role -- president of the Resident Senate of John Knox Village, a continuing care residential community in Pompano Beach. In this capacity, she represents 900 village residents, handles issues in concert with the village administration, oversees 11 resident committees and serves as a conduit to the community.
