Personal Summary
A graduate of Asbury Park High School, I attended Central State University and relocated to New York City after graduating from college. My husband and I moved back to Asbury full time in 2011, after spending many years of weekending and summering here.
I was married for 31 years to Arthur Thomas Galvin, Jr. When he passed away in December 2012, we shared 4 children and 2 granddaughters. My favorite activities are going to the beach, traveling, reading, eating out, and spending time with friends and family.
