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.
