Jo Bertloff, Neighbor

Hampton Terrace in Seminole Heights has been home to me longer than anywhere else in my life. Being raised as the child of an Air Force family had many benefits. A stable home environment wasn't one of them...

Life on Henry is sweet. Friends & neighbors are like family and the feeling carries through the Terrace Heights like the smell of baking bread wifting through the air from a local bakery.

My work as an interpreter, artist and artist's representative, photographer and restoror of objects old & neglected (like this house!) help me to understand the past, present and how important communication is. My work with Deaf people have taught me regardless of who you are, we all have something important to teach each other; if we just take the time to listen.
