Caring for others has always been my nature and has brought me happiness and great meaning throughout my life. I spent alot of my teenage years taking care of my grandmother, staying with her on weekends instead of going out with my friends. In the early 90's I founded Noah's Ark Ministries. I became an activist for the homeless mentally ill and women and children. Along the way I discoved several seniors that were without any caring family and found volunteers to provide care and company for them. Two elderly gentlemen I provided care for moving one of them in my home as he had dementia.. In 98 I began attending Johnson Bible College. Due to my mothers passing I had to move in with my dad my senior year. I had planned on becoming a missionary but after a couple of years he began to develop dementia. I felt I could not abandon him and spent the next 12 years taking care of him until he went to be with the Lord. I believe the well being of others being a hogh priority, kindness and love are the most impotant qualities in someone to trust that person with your loved one.
