Mama’s Got Game!
Have you heard it said about someone “He or She’s got game”? Typically that means – “They are really good at something!” But when someone says that about me, it means “She’s NOT simply a fan watching the game from the sidelines or the stands -– she’s in the game, playing on the field, and…
Mama’s Home on Valentine’s Day
February 14, 2004 As usual on Valentine’s, my husband, Ron, took Mom the single rose in a vase and her favorite box of chocolates. Mom had been living at the Grace Living Center in Jenks, Oklahoma for four and a half months because of a severe fall, which the doctor said was reason enough for…
The Show Must Go On!!
The Show Must Go On! (aka…. Life Must Go On!) One year ago this coming Wednesday, November 16th, my Honey got the thrill of a lifetime, his Bucket List was completed, and he got his ticket for the ride he’d waited for, earned, deserved, and was awarded. He got to go Home to Heaven. As…
Happy 45th Anniversary to My Honey & Me!!
July 8th, 1966 – I married the love of my life. Never did we dream we wouldn’t make it to our 50th Wedding Anniversary….let alone our 45th. In fact, we had already made plans for how we’d celebrate our 50th. There weren’t many things we would do without the other, but this time, God had…
Feeling the Love — It’s a Love-Fest!
Along our journeys of faith, if we keep our eyes and hearts wide open, we’ll encounter situations and people that, without a doubt, we know…..God is working out His divine plan and purpose in and through us! In 2005, a precious couple in our church, gave birth to their third child, Owen Thomas Anderson. When…
Living With No Regrets!!
That’s my new motto! In the last year, I’ve come to realize how important it is to live each day to its fullest – on purpose – making the most of the moments, the hours and the days that God gives me! We’ve all made statements like, “I wish had done this or I wish…
Our Family Legacy Lives On!!

MARCH…..Forward: We’re On Assignment!!!
Here we are – already into the month of March! Time is literally MARCH-ing forward, and so are we! Picture a platoon of soldiers, marching….they don’t march backward….they march forward! Whether they are at their home base moving from one post to another, or are on the battlefield….they are on assignment and they will not…
Our 50th Valentine’s Day Celebration – It Was Meant to Be!
I’m still remembering. February 14, 1961 – fifty years ago today, the cutest dark haired 13 year old boy named Ronnie (aka Ron) Wuerch and me, the lankiest, 12 year old girl named Donna Sue Wheat, had our very first “official” date (chauffeured by Ron’s dad) to a church Valentine’s Banquet. The photo here is…
Teamwork — Hand in Hand – Side by Side
Many times in life, we find ourselves, hand-in-hand and side-by-side with others on similar faith journeys. Yesterday, Shannon, a precious friend, wife and mother of three young children passed from this life to heaven. I am compelled to share about her because she was such a part of our own Faith Journey. Several years ago,…
