My husband, J.C., and I have been married for 35 years.We have a daughter just married this summer and a son in college (freshman)My hobbies are knitting, riding my four-wheeler, hunting, golfing, riding my horse and moving cattle, snowmobiling, and most anything else involved with the outdoors.
After graduation in 1967, I attended COCC in Bend for one year. I don't care for school or college so I didn't go back. Later I attended Pacific Business College in Portland and received my Legal Secretary degree. In 1969 I took some time off from school and served as a princess on the Paulina Rodeo court. In 1970 I went to work at the Bank of Central Oregon in Redmond. In July of 1970 I went on a blind date and fell in love with my now husband. We have lived on his family ranch in Bear Valley (Seneca) ever since. In 1991 I served five years on the District 3 school board.
I have spent most of my life riding for cows, calving cows and heifers, and driving hay machinery. I get tired but do love doing it. We have gotten to go to Hawaii twice and the NFR once. My sister and I spend a week at the coast each year for fun. We have also been very involved with the Oregon Cattlemen's Association.
It took a while but in 1985 we had a daughter. She was married this summer and now lives with her husband in Evanston, Wy, and is a Certified Veterinary Technician. Our son was born 1988 and just graduated from Grant Union High School. He played in the East-West Shrine game and now is attending University of Idaho studying Ag Systems Management. We are very proud of our lives, accomplishments and our family.
Dad passed away in 1999 and Mom passed away in 2004. We just lost J.C.'s Mom one year ago and his Dad in 1996.

I have a very good friend who's name is Sigh. He is four years old and a pure bred Australian Sheppard. He helps me with everything and loves to ride on the four-wheeler with me.

He writes:
Marsha and I recently sold our home that we had lived in for the past 33 years and bought another home in southeast Bend. We had raised our daughter and three sons in the previous home and have years of wonderful memories. We had raised gardens, flowers, calves, sheep and chickens, and all of the children had participated in 4-H with sheep. Marsha and I were 4-H leaders, and I was the 4-H sheep superintendent for 12 years at the old Deschutes County fairgrounds. I have many years of hunting and fishing memories, as well as memories of school sports that the kids participated in.
The kids have grown, and Marsha and I have refocused our energies on the newly purchased home on an acre to design and develop the landscape around. We both really enjoy designing, maintaining and growing vegetable gardens, flowers, and overall gardening. For the past several years, we both have taken up trap shooting and have enjoyed it a lot. Somewhere along the line we got the golf bug and have not been able to get it out of our system. We try to golf as much as we can during the short Central Oregon season, and a couple of years we have found ourselves out golfing on New Year’s Day.
For the past 39+ years I have worked for Sunriver. I am vice president of Sunriver Environmental LLC and of Sunriver Water LLC. During the last seven years under the environmental side of the business, I have developed compost that meets the State of Oregon requirements for class A grade compost that we sell to the general public, landscapers, and commercial businesses for top dressing, vegetable and flower beds, and compost mulch in shrub and ornamental beds. These interests, as well as enjoying working in the water and wastewater business, have kept me busy over the past 40 years.
