My birth name is Loretta, changed it later on in life to my middle name I hated my birth name shame shame on my parents for giving it to me, so I am now known as Yavonne(aka smack talker)

I am a resident of Virginia. I retired from the Federal Bureau Of Investigation. I have 3 beautiful daughters ages 22 to 26 and 4 lil busy bee grands(2)girls (2)boys and two of them are twins who were just a blessing to our family. I enjoy our family time together, every year we plan a family vacation.My past life until my retirement of leagues I have enjoyed being an Admin, coming up with games to share in various leagues, and also designing other leagues main page. Now I just love playing spades win or lose, its just a great time of being around friends and chatting.

When asked how did I hear about Forevers Actually about maybe 4yrs ago I think, I was taking one of my breaks from hosting tours and just wanted to play a rated game to relax when I first saw a spam in lobby for Forevers Spade League, that day I joined, but didn't play much, because of my strong commitment and support to run another league. So, I went mia from Forevers until 2007, when a great friend of 8yrs told me she was now tding here, and I told her I miss playing spades and the friends I met along the way. So after several convo's with her, I decided to watch, and observe the lobby of beetle.

It was then I really really realize how much I missed playing in leagues, and decided to re-join, here I found people I have known for years and wonder what ever happen to them, but was glad to be around them again and to see a league when I first came here when it was just a few to grow to one of largest myleague spades league on the net. Its just awesome now to be apart of this growing spades family and see how much respect is shown here from the HA herself to all..So now when I am asked where I play, I say, I am a proud member of Forevers Spade.

...btw i want you all to know this brought tears to my eyes it was an honor to be recongized here at forevers..i been around in leagues for 10yrs and neva got anything to compare to this..you guys have touched my heart in a way i neva will forget..so i say thank you from the bottom of my heart for this..god bless you all and i glad to be a member of forevers..thxs
