JUNJI GOMES (nee DELFINO)

DAVID GOMES (nee HOW MA?)

mother to:
JOELLE, JUDITH, AARON...

...LAUREL & HARDY

RYAN & PAOLO (he he he)

Jazz vocalist by profession, writer by inclination, homemaker by obligation, multi-tasker by....... self-infliction.


Accomplishments include:


...a 16-yr marriage that has been joyfull & blissful, for the most part (hey, most marriages these days don't even make it past the 'please-remember-to- put-the-toilet-seat-down-and-cap-the-toothpaste -back-when- you're-done- dear' stage!)

...a respectable career as a jazz vocalist (okay, so i ain't been labelled a diva but at least i sing real jazz... wraaawr!);

...performing, producing & co-directing musical projects with husband, David and some others...;

...at least one album credit to date;

...dabbling in a little bit of theatre with the infamous indian cafe theatre company (down to 2 indians at the last count; 3 if you include susie);

...keeping a fairly decent bod in spite of bearing 5 kids;

...staying out of any major trouble in the last 45 years (phew!)

Other things I'd still like to accomplish:


...early retirement so i can spend more quality time with my children :-);

...produce & release more albums & more shows;

...travel with my children when i retire :-];

...maybe write a book, write more songs for more albums;

....did i mention early retirement for my children's sake??

...write at least one musical... for children? :-/

ok... when i finally retire... i'd really like to visit places like, Jerusalem, the Himalayas, Angkor Wat, Sistine Chapel... Taj Mahal... Kuala Terengganu... and all those places that I've read about... or heard of... or ever only seen in pictures!

but only if my children haven't committed me to an old folks' home by then :-0
