About Me

---

As a nine-year-old a voice in the dark told me to ask God for love, knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. I looked up the words in dictionary and I did seek Him, with all earnest and sincerity. With no religion, I knew Him as an evening star until I was 21 when I bought my first Bible. He gave me a life so full of challenges. I chose to make the best of them knowing He was with me and understanding that I wanted to help people be the best they can be. For me, experience was a great teacher. I not only endured, I thrived to be able to walk with you and encourage you and without reservation say, "Yes, you can!"

Steve Charbonneau and I have been married 47 years and have lived together in Port Orchard, Washington State.  We home educated our four children, who are now most caring and successful adults, raising their own children with their spouses. 

I enjoy family time (especially grandchildren), animals, gardening, traveling, nature, wildlife viewing, reading, teaching, creating and appreciating fine arts, cooking and eating.
