My bio is nothing fancy or grand; I'm just a little old lady who lives in the Northeast corner of Washington along the banks of Lake Roosevelt and have been doing genealogy long before computers and the internet came along and changed the way one does their research now days.

For me, genealogy has never been about the gathering of names, dates and places, but rather to bring life back to all who have gone before us. To gain a better understanding of the choices they made; the lives they lived and the hardships they endured. In doing so, I'd like to think I've gathered together for our family's future generations a true sense of what genealogy is all about, filled with documentation and personal interviews with those no longer with us and giving any future family genealogist the tools and platform to build upon their own future genealogical efforts.

Unlike others who feel the need to be possessive and controlling of the photos they have posted here at Find A Grave, please note that ANY photo I take has been done so in the TRUE spirit of volunteerism and with the intent of helping others in their search for family members and they are more than welcome to use said photo for any genealogical purpose they so desire in their efforts to preserve their family's history.
