Who I Am:

Who I am:

I, no doubt, have a lot in common with you. I took a job for which I was
woefully unprepared and have fashioned it into a life I love. For 28 years I
have been willing to share my husband's call and help in any way I can.
The journey has been exhilarating, frustrating, joyful, and heart-breaking,
but I have never regretted joining Mike on the adventure.

My  Interests:

I love to read (whodunits preferably), travelogues and essays.  As I am
getting older, I am learning to find pleasure in gardening and walking.  
Mike and I enjoy eating out.  Since we're big foodnetwork fans, we gauge
everything on an Emeril or Rachael Ray scale of goodness.

There's Got to Be More:

We are the parents of three adult children.  Our oldest, Jana, is married to
Ken Waddell, our associate pastor.  He is an elder in our church and she
is our youth pastor.  Our son, David, attends Collins College in Tempe,
Arizona, seeking a degree in movie production.  He has already shown
great creativity and promise with video projects in the Christian community
and working at the NBC affiliate station. Our youngest, Jenn, is site
coordinator at the school district's before-and-after school care. An
incredibly gifted children's worker, she is our children's church director.
