Personally:
Christy, a South Central Kentucky native, graduated from Western Kentucky University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting. She and her husband Frank have been married since December 2007, and they currently reside on the beautiful Tennessee River in Huntsville, AL. When they're not enjoying river life, they’re off seeking their next adventure. Road trips, boat trips, or traveling to any destination that promises something new and exciting—Christy and Frank are always up for exploring. Whether it's a spontaneous getaway or a carefully planned vacation.
They love spending time with their family of 5 children, 3 wonderful daughters-in-law, and 9 lively grandchildren. For them, life is all about making memories, having fun, and embracing the journey.
