Growing up in Laurel, Montana in the 1950s and '60s shaped who I am today. Montana Testament is my way of honoring the people, places, and moments that left a lasting impression on my heart. These stories are more than just memories — they are a celebration of the everyday beauty found in family bonds, spiritual discovery, and community connection. I wrote this book to preserve the essence of a time when life moved slower, yet felt fuller. My hope is that readers find pieces of their own story reflected in mine — and maybe even a renewed appreciation for the values that carry us through life.
