Description

I was born and raised in Chatham (Cape Cod) Massachusetts. I am the youngest of fi ve children. I graduated from Chatham High School. I was married in 1985, currently living in Provo, Utah with my husband, Edmond. I worked with trouble teens and loved every minute of it. There were always challenges. I love reaching out to teenagers and giving trouble teens a little tender, loving, and care which goes a long way. Listening to them when they needed someone, trying to understand them in a way that other people could not understand where they were coming from. When I was a teenager, I use to hang around downtown. My friends and I skipped school along with breaking some laws over and over, until an extraordinary man saw something special about me and took me off the streets; put me to work at his store. He taught me about life in general, like keeping promises, lying, stealing and taking school seriously. Teaching me that there are consequences in the decisions and actions that I take, also teaching me there are challenges in life, the worst thing I could do is to cop out and run from my problems. I am very glad I had a mentor like him, he changed my life. I feel lucky because I have two mentors; the second was the assistance manager of that very same store. He also taught me a lot and used to read the bible which made me more motivated in reading the bible in my teens and I never stop reading the bible. My family supported everything in my life. Thank you to everybody that helped me changed, teaching me not to give up my dreams and be successful in life.
