Bess Path resides in Homer, NY where she moved after growing up in North Muskegon MI near the Lake Michigan shore. She has fond memories of childhood days spent playing on the beautiful white sand beaches and jumping in the waves of Lake Michigan with her brothers and sisters. A few years later these pristine beaches were rendered basically unusable by the stench of large numbers of dead fish washed ashore because her beloved water had become so polluted. This was hearbreaking to her. More recently she has been concerned about our drinking water and that of her grandchildren and their grandchildren and many generations to come. The issues with fracking rendering the drinking water of many families in PA unsafe for consumption by humans and other living things has been a great source of distress for Bess. She sees that water is a sacred, life giving gift that must be honored and protected.
