I was born on March 17, 1932, in Seattle, Washington. My family traveled from place to place trying to find work, and finally landed in California. I graduated from Visa High School in 1950 and went to work for Pacific Telephone Co. In 1967 I earned a modern executive management degree from International Correspondence School. While working part-time for the telephone company, I received an A.A. degree from Los Angeles Valley Jr. College in 1970 and was elected to "Who's Who among Students in American Junior Colleges" in 1970-1971. I continued to earn a B.A. degree in communication from California State University in Los Angeles in 1973 with a GPA of 3.8. I was on the Board of Directors of ADEPT (Assisting Disabled Employment Placement Training) and president of Telephone Pioneers of America Council with 5,000 members. While working part-time, I taught at California State University and held a management position for the company where I taught equipment and other business subjects until I retired in 1988. I was elected President of Homeowners Association, President of Ladies Golf Club, and President of Gold Equity in the community where I lived. I moved to San Clemente, California in 2002 and am very active in my community today while trying my hand at writing a little poetry.
Autorenporträt
Wow. As I sit here, writing my bio, it is the hardest part of this book, as I had to really think about who I was. First and foremost, I am a child of God, a mother of two daughters and four grandchildren, and live a simple life with my husband in small town Ontario, Canada. I always wanted to do something meaningful in my life to help others and to show my daughters they can accomplish anything. With no real skills, I thought that going to college to become an interior decorator-as I love decorating homes-would be the ticket. Turns out, it wasn't. It wasn't until I met Jesus and was baptized with the Holy Spirit that my life changed dramatically. He not only saved me, He also knew my heart's desire when I didn't know what it was myself. As I sit here typing this bio, I am humbled by the power and love He shows all of us each and every day. I am so honoured to serve Him, and to hopefully reach others in this way! Even if this book reaches only one person, I am grateful for the honour of doing something I never thought possible for the King of Kings to reach others. Amen!
