Denise's Story
I left Santa Paula in 1981, moving to San Diego County. Three years later I lost my husband in a plane crash. Life was a little lonely for a while, but God provided everything the girls and I needed.
I have been married for 22 years to Chuck. He has three daughters, I have two, and we now have 10 wonderful grandchildren, 8 boys and 2 girls. After Chuck's retirement ending 48 years with Ford, we have devoted our time as short term missionaries to Mexico, Africa, China, and Ireland. We just returned from a two week mission in the Ukraine, and have future plans for a trip up the Amazon and a re...Expand for more
turn trip to Africa. God has blessed us to be able to work with children in these countries, teaching them about Jesus Christ.
Now that all our daughters are married, when we are not in the mission field, our free time is spent fishing, and camping in the National Parks. We both love the mountains and wildlife and my favorite place in this world is visiting Yellowstone in my travel trailer. We travel with our tiny 5 lb. dog.
Both my parents have now passed away, so my visits to Santa Paula have ceased. Coming to our next reunion would be a lot of fun, depending on the time it is planned.
