Louise Becker Blakey Gross

Worked as a picture framer, graphic artist, stained glass artist, card designer but now am an active member of the Leesburg Senior Center where I am a potter. My husband of 42 years, Phillip Gross worked in the IT field for many years. We moved around a few times, living in Connecticut and California. Phill retired but wasn’t willing to sit at home so he went back to work as an IT guy in the Loudoun County School system. We were foster parents for 10 years. We are still waiting for the last adult child to get out on her feet. We have 2 granddaughters.

Rarely get to Alexandria. I live 1 1/2 hours away.
