THE AUTHOR

Within three weeks of meeting Ken, Kristine knew she would marry him. Two months later, they had a fairy-tale wedding in Miami and then raised two sons together. They later moved to a forest in Lake Wales, Florida. After 32 years of marriage and at the age of 53, she unexpectedly found herself a widow and relocated to Branford, Florida, to live with her son, Greg. She is now retired after spending over 40 years in the medical/legal fields and running her own medical consulting firm, “The Bottom Line Consultants.” More importantly, she served the church in a variety of positions including Youth Director, Sunday School Teacher, lead Elder and Secretary to the Minister of Christian Education. When asked to describe his wife in one word, Ken replied, “Resilient.” With the help of Greg and Don, she was able to work through her grief and loneliness. However, she testifies this was only bearable because God cupped her in his hands and carried her through the toughest times.
