We moved to White City because of the church and now loved the sense of home, the peaceful community we enjoy.
2. HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU SERVED ON COUNCIL? This is my third term on Council. My reason for running has always been to give back to my community as I learn municipal governance and come to appreciate the efforts of administration and past Council members who worked hard to ensure we have a thriving community.
3. OUTSIDE OF SERVING ON COUNCIL, HOW DO YOU SPEND YOUR TIME? In different ways. I spend my time doing different church and ministry work, and due to COVID restriction working from home. I also study to gain more knowledge about issues I am passionate about. My husband and I also spend our time in hospitality towards new immigrants we come across.

1. WHERE DID YOU GROW UP AND HOW DID YOU COME TO BE LIVING IN OUR COMMUNITY? I was born in Saskatoon and lived there until I was four years old, then my parents purchased a farm near Fiske, Saskatchewan. At the age of 19, I enlisted in the Cana- dian Armed Forces and served a three-year term, with two years served in Germany. When I returned home, the RM of St Andrews employed me as an equipment opera- tor and mechanic. In 1970 I enrolled in the trade school in Saskatoon and received my journey-Man Certificate. I was employed as a heavy-duty mechanic then entered into a heavy equipment sales career until my retirement. My heavy equipment sales allowed me to live in several towns and cities in the province, Saskatoon, Yorkton, Mel- fort, Swift Current, and Regina. In 1999, my wife Betty and I wanted to buy an acreage close to Regina, and we were fortunate to find Park Meadows in the RM of Edenwold.
2. HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU SERVED ON COUNCIL? For my voice to be heard, I decided to participate in the political arena 16 years ago. I have since served on the council due to my passion for Community service. I have served on many Committees, including Emergency mea- away from cell phones and computers.
