“I’d like to say I’ve had a good life being born again June of 1952. I’ve lived an odd life – following the leading of the spirit within me. Not caring what others thought only caring if I was doing the “Lord’s Will”. I don’t have much of worldly goods, but I have a wealth of experience in doing for others”.
