Did You Know?

Having named her first daughter after her mother Angela, and her second daughter after her father Michele, Marie Barbarossa resorted to thumbing through movie magazines as she looked forward to another daughter. Movie star Debra Padget's name struck her as pretty - and thus Debra Barbarossa (Dorward) was named.
