I became a registered nurse right out of high school. I let my license lapse so I could stay home and take care of my family. Now of course I went back to what I love which is being a caregiver. I'm somewhat of an overachiever. I strive every day to make sure the patient feels secure and well cared for.Their happiness is my happiness.

I'm reliable, honest, trustworthy, and driven. I've had a passion for helping others since I was younger, at just about 12 years of age. What I enjoy most is being able to be a helping hand and someone others can count on when in need. I'm proud of the amount of years I put in to the senior community and was given many opportunities to build in this field.

I was born in Lansing MI, and at two I moved to Grand Rapids, I went to Eastern Elementary School and then to Creston High School. I took up Machine Shop and Architectural Drawing. I was the oldest of 12 children. After high school I took a Tool & Die Apprenticeship. I also worked as a volunteer for the fire department. I built a house in Sparta Township where I live with my wife. I retired from Tool Die 2010 because of cancer. Then I started volunteering at Rest Haven Homes which ended up in a paid position. I enjoy making some one happy and to do the things they enjoy and also to be a companion and a friend. I do transportation to doctor appointments, dentist appointments, shopping, movies, out to eat, visit a friend, errands, or travel, I also do in home care with dressing assistance, mobility, exercise, meal planning, and preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, etc. I have completed classes on Hospice Care, Dementia, and worked at Rest Haven Homes for 12 years, and 3 1/2 years with Leaves Personal Care.

I have been a stay at home mom for 23 years. I spent a few years caring for my grandma while trying to keep her in her home as long as possible as her health deteriorated due to dementia. I've volunteered in a number of capacities but always wanted to find things that kept my evenings and weekends open for my family. I enjoy playing and listening to music, crocheting, quilting, reading, taking walks, the Michigan beaches and spending time with my family and friends. I am pretty laid back and fun loving but I also like a good plan and organization.

Love feeling needed. Also love giving the patient the best, day possible. Love to watch old movies, bring old postcards, or cook be dishes their mother made in the past. Miss my own grandparents terribly. Caregiving fills that void for me. Love, it when my patients relive the past, and feel young again! Proud of taking care of people and helping them regain joy, in their last days.
