What name do you go by? Elijah, Ancle Elijah, Rene (At work or family) or Nene (by My nieces and nephew)

How old are you? 44

Where were you born? Lansing, Mi.

What is your greatest fear? Losing My ability to reason/think

What is your earliest memory? Sitting in the living room at about 5, listening to/watching My parents tearfully talk about getting a divorce. Though I don't remember anything they said.

What is your most embarrassing moment? It has something to do with a part of My anatomy being exposed and I was clueless, when I discovered it, I was utterly humiliated. That was many moons ago and now I ensure nothing like that could ever happen and the rest I just laugh at.

What would your super power be? The ability to heal the sick (both mind and body).

What do you most dislike about your appearance? My weight...one day I would like to know what it's like to live in My body.

What would your fancy dress costume of choice be? A Pirate.

Who would play you in the film of your life? Clark Gable, of course.

What is your most unappealing habit? The fact that I like things done My way.


What is your favourite book? The Velveteen Rabbit.

What does love feel like? Coming home.

What's the worst job you've ever done? I was a cook at a Mexican eatery, I worked there for 2 weeks just long enough to submerge both My hands in Jalapeno juices and get sent home with hands swollen twice their size and then get stung by a bee on the back of My neck in the sweltering heat of the kitchen. That ended My career in food service.

What has been your biggest disappointment? I try not to look at things this way. Whatever I have done or not done, I always try and do it with honor, so no regrets.

When did you last cry and why? Suffice it to say that I have been known to cry on occasion. The rest is intensely personal.

What is the closest you've come to death? Standing on a platform in an old barn when I was it kid and it collapsed, luckily My coat snagged on a very large spike so I hung there until My coat ripped off.. and I fell to the ground. My cousin went to get My grandfather, but he had one speed and we called it "turtle".

How would you like to be remembered? Kind, Wise and Clever.

What is the most important lesson life has taught you? How little I really know.
