About Me
ABOUT ME
I have been a missionary for over 35 years, and lived in many different places. I am easy going,love life, enjoy people and love to communicate deeply with kindred spirits. I have raised a family of six children who are grown now and moved away from home living all over the world. Some are missionaries and some aren't.
I am presently living in the USA but am a New Zealander.
I don't smoke, enjoy a social drink with friends, play squash, love horses, and am eager to continue to enjoy life now that my kids are grown.
Interests
I really enjoy people! And helping others. I am involved with social work in Mexico in the poorer areas and also in the hospitals with kids that have cancer.
I enjoy a good movie, and the outdoors. Haven't managed to jump out of an airoplane yet, but my son is trying to get me to go hang gliding.... not so sure about that either! I do crossfit and love it!

Hmmm.... watching four of my children bungee jump! Scary awesome. Did the Tongariro crossing! A seven hour mountain climb in NZ.
Watching babies born..always something beautiful and moving for me.
