She is a Michigan State University Grad School of Hospitality Business, a mom of two sons (Taylor and Justin), both in Air Force, one daughter-in-law with same name as oldest son (Taylor Thompson) and has been married 30 years to her handsome husband, Rick.  She is a dog mom to a Dutch Shepard and Bulldog.  She loves to cook and research new recipes, almost never cooks the same thing twice (except Gumbo).
