I would very much like to have a Buddy/Mentor to help me through this new journey in my life. I live in a very small town in SW Georgia; I'm married with 2 sons (24 yr old who is a Marine, 20 yr old college student); I am a Shipping Coordinator for a large Corporation; Hobbies include photography, boating, a little fishing, reading, just being outside. I am so proud of this life changing decision that I made for myself and look forward to finally living my life to the fullest.
