I Won My First Medal When I

My Parents Never Pressured Me To Skate. They Always Said I Could Quit If I Wanted To. They Only Expected Me To Skate When They Had Already Paid For The Expensive Lessons. But, Otherwise They Said I Could Do What I Wanted To Do.

It Was Always Fun To Skate With Paul Wylie And Paul Martini.

Falling Down Became Second Nature And It Really Didn't Bother Me.

I Won My First Medal When I Was Nine Years Old. It Was At The Boston Open.

I Worked Also, Doing Things Such As Our Paper Route And, Later On, Waitressing.
