As a cradle Episcopalian, I have been a member of St. James the Less for 51 (!) years. Church was a family affair for us growing up. Since my time at this church, I have been part of the Youth Group and a Youth Group leader, a member of the youth choir and adult choir, and was one of the first two female acolytes at St. James the Less. I have worked with the clinic since its inception, taught Sunday school, served on the Chenery Committee and Vestry. Rick and I were married at this church. Our children, Kathryn and Chip, were baptized and grew up in this church. Most recently, our grandchild, Evelyn, was baptized here. This church has been central to our family's life.

Rick and I have lived in Glen Allen (Henrico) for 30+ years. We both retired together in 2021 to enjoy spending time together, time our friends and family, traveling and visiting our children and grandchild. I am honored to serve on the Vestry.
