I was born in Illinois and now reside in the beautiful state of
Minnesota. Growing up, I told countless stories to my brothers and sisters. I wrote my
first novel when I ran out of books that I liked to read. Rosemary for Remembrance,
published by Harper Paperbacks, was nominated for a Romantic Times Award for Best
Contemporary Romantic Novel. My second book, Wedding Chimes, Assorted Crimes, is a
hardcover published by Five Star. Ive also published numerous articles, short
stories and essays. My love affair with words continues and I hope you enjoy my latest
story.
I thank my family, friends and co-workers for their generous
support and encouragement. I also acknowledge Gods wonderful gift of his son, Jesus
Christ, who died as a sacrifice for my sins and rose in glory to be my personal Savior.
God has blessed me, not only by sparing my life after two bouts with cancer, but by being
my refuge and strength on a daily basis.
