Proudest Moments of My Life: 1: graduating from Rhema Bible Training Center ’96; 2:  going on a  mission trip to the Navajo Reservation where the Indians told me “thank you for praying for us to have The Bible translated into our language. Now I’m a Christian.” PTL  3: passing CRRN (certified rehabilitation registered nurse) at age 62  4: working in the refugee camp in Norway

Things I Would Like My Classmates to Know:  I became an RN in Charlotte, NC  in 1967.  I met my husband and we married on 31 May 1969.  I have two children, two stepsons, twelve grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.  We lived in six states, traveled in Europe, did mission work and lived in Norway where we worked in a refugee camp – had church services for them with people from about ten countries.  We also were involved in jail and prison ministry for over seventeen years.  I have been doing hospital nursing and Rehab nursing for 35 of these 42 years.  I still enjoy nursing and teaching patients and families how to live beyond their stroke or disability.  But I don’t like having to do so many things on the computer.  Maybe I’ll learn enough to keep my half-time job until retirement.  I moved my parents here with us in 2004 and to a retirement center in 2007 where they have 24-hour care with plenty of help.  They still remember many of you and have many good memories from Lancaster.
