Are you a sport’s fan? If so, who do you root for? No question – OHIO STATE

What is your favorite food and/or your favorite place to eat? Italian and probably Oley’s or Salvatories

Do you have a favorite quote? Philippians 3:12-13 “Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead”

What is your favorite food and/or your favorite place to eat? 1) I don’t cook, so anyplace that serves food is a great place! 2) Chinese, Italian, and Mexican

Do you have a favorite quote? Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” And “Just because you’ve lost your fuzz don’t mean you ain’t a peach.” – Dolly Parton on being follically challenged
