3. Celebrating America's Bill of Rights Day in Payson, Arizona     Willowdean Vance is the most senior advocate in America's homeowner association reform movement. She was born in Berwyn, Massachusetts on June 6, 1927. She has been a teacher of American history and government to many and to the media and politicians. She lived in California from 1956 - 1994 where America's homeowner association foreclosure rackets began. Her home was frequented by many homeowners whose homes were robbed by corrupt homeowner association lawyers and judges. She worked closely with many AHRC founders and members of the media. Together they pioneered America's homeowner association reform movement. In 1997 she moved to Florida and lent her knowledge and experience to the Florida homeowner association reform movement. Willowdean says that she has been looking for a traditional American town that reflects the sincerity of our founding fathers where she can retire to and continue her writing. On December 15, 2005 Willowdean will leave for Payson, Arizona. Willowdean is happy to see that Payson celebrates "American Bill of Rights Day". They celebrate it every year on December 15th.
