Carol

I am a young at heart 60-year-old, 5’ 5” and slim. I am one of five children and at age seven the missionaries knocked on our door. Subsequently, our family all joined the church. Life changed for us – the Browns, as we became fully involved in LDS life.

Some of the things I love and have loved doing. Bringing up the children were some of the ‘best’ years. Spending time with the family. Climbing Ben Nevis. Having the opportunity to travel to many places in this country and abroad, including South Korea. A good holiday would include sightseeing, walks and visiting places of historical interest – an interesting book to read would be a must. A bike ride a delight and a quaint tea room a bonus. I also thoroughly enjoyed my university degree that I embarked on at age 44 yrs. (Health Studies BA Hons) - that was In Liverpool same time as my daughter was doing her degree in Manchester- some of the best years.
I love my job working as a teaching assistant and mentor at a local High School. I get satisfaction from simple things in life and have always enjoyed being a homemaker.
Now, as life has taken an unexpected turn, I want to take on new challenges, to continue to learn, to grow, to continue enjoying the wonderful family I have but to also make room for someone else. I always have believed two are better than one and companionship is a thing to treasure. I have a strong faith in Heavenly Father and believe that we are here to have joy on the journey.
