Her love of children created in her the desire to be an elementary school teacher, an occupation she found totally fulfilling, as she loved those young ones and helped them learn important skills and life lessons. After several years of teaching school, God brought a young man into her life and they married. God blessed them with nine children. Then she had the special delight of teaching her very own children, investing in their lives, and preparing them for their future.

Her testimony is that after 49 years of happy marriage and nine adult children who love and serve Jesus Christ, God’s ways work.view less
