After 28 years of ministering as an elementary school teacher, and 28 more years as an accountant for the CSA Health System, I retired from active ministry. I still wanted to continue being involved, so in 2012 I began volunteering at St. Vincent Charity Community Health Center (SVCCHC). I worked in the Medical Records Department there until 2024. I continue to volunteer now, helping Regina Health Center on their Fundraising Committee and collecting pop cans for the Fire Department’s and the Red Cross’s recycling program. I consider it very important to be positive and gracious to everyone I meet, greeting them with a smile, a cheerful good morning, and offering assistance wherever and whenever possible.
