About Me
Ordained Minister, Mother, Principal, Foster Parent, Homeschooler, International Host coordinator.
My Grandfather Terrence Ivey was a scientist. He invented the first portable Xray machine in 1944 and later the first working fiberglass tanker for hauling hazardous chemicals. He was my idol, I loved him more than life. He built us two telescopes by hand in the back yard of our Montreal home. I remember listening to far off lands on his short wave radio.
He and Colin Chapman of Lotus were fast long time friends (I was raised with "Uncle" Colin being just another member of the family). I spent many years as a pit brat, traveling to the F1 Grand Prix races. Look in my photos for some pictures of my grand parents and family memories. I have lots of memorabilia from years of races. Our home movies bring back some wonderful memories. We've lots touch over the years, but I Fondly remember wonderful times at East Carlton Manor and the plant. I'd love to be able to touch base again sometime, and share some memories.
