Deb and Larry
Married in 1974, Deb and Larry are proud of their three sons. The family has grown to include daughters-in-laws and Grandchildren. Along the way there was always space for youth who needed a home whom we count as our kids, too. Several dogs have lived in our home as well. We have been truly blessed. Thank you, Lord!
We love Shelties!

I will exalt you, my God and King,
and praise your name forever and ever.
I will praise you every day; yes, I will praise you forever. Great is the Lord!
He is most worthy of praise!
