Kathleen McLaughlin, my wife.

I have known Kathleen since the 1980s. It all started when she inquired about some old glass insulators she had found (I had already been collecting them for some years). I was a bottle magazine columnist (Old Bottle Magazine) specializing in the insulators column. Her parents collected them and was later introduced me to Kathleen. The rest is history...

We officially started to date in early 1992 after being long-time friends. Very soon thereafter I simply "fell" totally for her... since then our feelings remain the same! There is not a solitary nor imaginable thing in this world I would do for my wife. A remarkable, one-a-million individual whom I totally respect! And this guy is extremely proud of his her, to say the least!!

Kathleen loves and cares about others!  With her cheerful smile she makes instantly friends with everyone she touches and meets ;-)

She is an optimist who has found opportunity in just about every obstacle she has encountered through her life.

Kathleen is a five-star person in every respect!

She is unequalled. I absolutely love, adore and respect her in every imaginable manner as my forever beautiful wife.

And...God does too!!

We have been eBay sellers and buyers since 1998 and we specialize in lighting and general antiques.

We live in an antique home near Cape Cod, MA that I purchased in 1978. I have restored it retaining its exposed original post-and-beam construction and antique charm throughout.

She fits in perfectly.

Thank you and may God Bless!

Kathleen and Joe ;-)
