About Tamara

Cooking and caring for my family and seniors from my church who are no longer able to function without assistance adds joy to my life. I have home schooled 3 children while I worked at home for a time running my own medical transcription business, and later working for an online transcription company. Bible study and teaching others is also passion. I also enjoy taking peaceful walks in the beautiful outdoors.
