There was a “me” before there was a “mom”.

Sit back, relax, this site is for YOU.

There was a “me” before there was a “mom”. That is the motto by which Elizabeth “Bert” Anderson lives. The frequent moves she experienced growing up as a military brat helped her become very comfortable with new encounters.
