As an amateur writer, mother, wife and legal secretary for the past 25 years, my passion for the courage of clergy sex abuse victims, their families and mandated reporters, who made a choice to protect children, before their own career security and ego, has evolved over the past 5 years.

My husband, Michael, is a former Catholic high school teacher and coach, who was forced to make a career change without due process of the law. He will soon complete his Masters Degree in Special Education, his new-found passion. Our children, Nicole, Rachel, Brent and Laurel are a gift to us and all who meet them. We pray our children and the world's children will witness society correcting the wrongs committed against innocent children and families. Without justice, there will never be peace; without peace, faith and our country's laws are empty.

"What Happened to the Bishops - One Week Later?" God works mysteriously and he did it again this week when I found my e-mail box full of loving, caring and concerned responses supporting immediate corrective action for crimes relating to Soul Murder (clergy sex abuse). Thanks for touching the lives of so many through your public outcry, support and exercises of free speech, press and opinion.
