About us

My photo
Dalton City, Illinois
Rick and I have been married since 1974 and have lived in the family home since 1976 on the farm that the Steele family has farmed and lived since 1914. Rick is my earthly hero and I am his queen. We are kind of attached at the hip. God has blessed us with three children, nine grandchildren, and a grand dog. The purpose for our existence is to bring God, our Redeemer, glory. Life is not about us, but Him. To God be the Glory!
