I was happily married for 53 years. Now, I'm a widow. My sweet husband and I have 6 children, 14 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren. I am interested in many things and love teaching what I know how to do. I love cooking, gardening, am very good at making bread. I sew, spin, and play the piano. I had to give up knitting and crocheting for the sake of my hands! I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
