About Me:

Well, I certainly never thought I'd be in a position to seek my significant other again, but I know Heavenly Father has a plan for each of us when we take that first uncomfortable step with faith that our righteous desires will be fulfilled in His time. Although, I certainly won't be upset if things move relatively quickly!

I have lots of varied interests, from music to sports, and love the outdoors and traveling. I also love dogs, along with training them to be well mannered and happy. I have five wonderful adult children and ten amazing grandkids that I enjoy spending time with. However, I still have a huge void in my life, and am looking for that special someone to go through life building a great relationship that makes us better together than we are by ourselves.

I'm always looking to help others, whether it be family, friends, or strangers. I'm not afraid to admit when I'm wrong and sincerely apologize. I try to be a good listener and don't try to solve the problem, but help the one talking find their own solution. I have a great sense of humor, but not at the expense of others. I laugh at myself way more than at others. I do my my best to not judge others, and understand others have their free agency.

Overall, I consider myself to be happy with a positive outlook on life. That's not to say that my life has always been easy, far from it. But accepting the restored gospel back when I was a teenager has taught me over the years that Christ will walk by my side or lead me when I listen, and will even carry me when I feel the burden is too overwhelming.

LDS singles I'd Like to Meet:

I've thought and prayed about this for quite some time, as this new chapter in my life has now unfolded. While I listed things about myself, I don't want to have a written or internal list. I simply hope to meet a daughter of our Heavenly Father who is seeking an eternal friend that hopefully leads to an eternal marriage if and when the time is right.

Church of Jesus Christ:

My testimony is ever evolving, both in my most joyous times and even my trials. The restored gospel has taught me so much, yet I feel I have hardly scratched the surface of what is available to for me to become a true disciple of Christ. I love how everything we learn and can have confirmed is always centered around our Savior, Jesus Christ.
