My Life In Pictures
These are my parents, Cheryl and Bob. My parents have always been very supportive of everything I do. This is the three of us at my 2006 graduation from Melrose High School.

This is my Popeye. He influenced me to always see the good in people, and to help whoever I can. He is like a second father to me. We lost Popeye to his battle with Leukemia on September 18, 2005. |

This is my best friend Ashley and I. We grew up one town away from each other in Massachusetts, and did not meet until we were at UMF. Ashley is like my other half, we come as a package.

These are my first two friends at UMF, Mandy and Molly. We are all from Massachusetts, and formed a quick bond. We lived together for a year, and always had a good time. I would not have made it through my 3 years here without Mandy and Molly!

This is my friend Michelle and I at the Grand Canyon in Arizona. Arizona is one of my favorite places in the world. We took this trip in the summer of 2006. |

This is Donavin Robert Withem. He is one of my best friend's sons. I spend a lot of time with Donavin. He can make even the worst day better. This picture was taken on his first trip to the park and on the swings.

Alexis Mary, Grace Olivia, Joshua Lee These are my 3 baby cousins. I have always been very close with them and their mothers who are also my cousins. I do not see them as much as I would like to because they live in N.H. and Florida, but I still love them! |

This is Ashley and my kitten, Owen. He is snuggling with my Popeye's stuffed dog. Owen is the world's biggest cat, or so we think. He also acts like a dog, but we still love him. He is VERY protective of Donavin.
