Author bio

I am a retired office manager/bookkeeper. I've had numerous different jobs over the years. My most inspiring job was being a wife and mother. Married over 53 years, I've seen many of life's ups and downs. My biggest and most proud achievements were the birth of our five children, followed by the reward of 10 grandchildren.
