I met her about 10 years ago on an airport shuttle in Ft Lauderdale. I didn’t recognize her and just started chatting with her. She said she had just flown in from NYC and some gig. I asked how her music career had worked out for her. She laughed and said it had turned out really well. Then I asked what her name was. When she said Lita Ford I just laughed and she did to. I apologized for not recognizing her but she said it was funny. Very cool woman.

She would come into the Starbucks I worked at and buy a ton of tea to take back to her island. She said that the people who lived there loved the tea, so she was stocking up.

She lived in Turks and Caicos for awhile I think.

She married a crazy dude who ended up fucking her life up pretty bad.
> Speaking about her custody arrangement with her ex-husband, Lita said (hear audio below): "By the time our divorce was final and everything was said and done, it was such a joke that it didn't matter what I got on paper. There was no way I was gonna be in those boys' lives. They were such a mess by the time I left and my ex-husband left that it just didn't matter. I just needed to walk away from everything and regroup and come back with Plan B. The big problem for me was I couldn't find them after hiring four or five private investigators and them being out of the country in a Carribbean island. I really didn't have any United States… The Hague Convention, the Hague treaty was working against me with them being in a Caribbean island. And when they did come back to the United States, it took me nine years to track them down and find out that they were living in Tennessee. If somebody wants to fall below the radar, they can."
> Asked what justification the courts used to deny her custody of her two children, Lita said: "They said I was not taking the medication that they prescribed for me that was absolutely ridiculous. It was just an excuse. I did everything in my power that they asked me to do. I did everything. They had nothing on me. And my ex-husband was just lying, he was just making up stuff as we went along. It was just insane. And as he made stuff up, there was no proof that I did all these things he said I did. It was just absolutely crazy. Because I really was a great mom. I put everything into being a mom. I stopped my musical career. I focused on nothing but my boys. I homeschooled my boys living on that deserted island. I mean, I spent all day every day with these kids. I had stacks of books. And then we would go fishing and we would cook dinner. We had a great, great relationship. So for them to turn around and say, 'Mom, you did this and you did that.' Like, 'Wait a minute. You guys are dreaming. You guys are being brainwashed by your dad.' And the attorneys are just feeding off of that."

If only she had been wearing a shirt with both her name and her band’s name on it during your encounter.
