Biographical/Background Information

I was born in England half a mile from the real Coronation Street. At age 5 my parents, sister and I moved to India where we lived for three years. My sister and I were sent to Ooti for schooling and whilst there I contracted Polio. After a miraculous recovery we returned to England. At age 21 we came to live in Canada where I met and married Candy. We have been to New Zealand twice for a total of nine years in tent making ministries. We worked with youth groups and children in need on the first trip where I worked as a carpenter. On the second trip, I was in private practice helping people learn to live again. Our calling was, and still is for the most part, to the household of faith. We have two children and two grandchildren.

Involvement at Prairie and the Community

My involvement with Prairie began with Candy becoming Dean of PCAAT. I gained the position of carpenter with the maintenance department and enjoy building cabinets, furniture and general maintenance.
