About our family:

It all began on June 25, 1976. We have been happily married for 30 years and have 3 wonderful children.

Tim is 27 years old and is married to Vicki. They have 3 kids, Zachary and Daniel who are Vicki’s children from before she met Tim and together they have Alyse who is a beautiful, lively 3 year old. Tim and Vicki were married on October 16, 2005. Vicki gave her life to Christ and was baptized just prior to their wedding. They are members of Clearwater Christian Church in Clearwater Florida. Vicki plays the flute in the praise band and Tim runs the soundboard.

Sarah is 25 and on June 17, 2006 became Mrs. Timothy Hayes. They were united in a beautiful setting in New Orleans. It was a great in-between place for our two families and their friends to gather so no one had to travel as far. Tim and Sarah are living in Orlando where Sarah is a 4th grade teacher at Deer Creek Elementary School and Tim works for T-Mobile.

Andy will turn 24 on August 19 and is beginning to make some good life choices. He is seeking God’s Will and is eager to find his place in this life and a fulfilling career. He is still single, but very available! He is a member of First Christian Church of Seminole Florida and is the soundboard person for the Contemporary Worship Service. He is learning to play the bass guitar and works for Domino’s Pizza.

Larry’s parents, Pat and John Renfro have lived in Bella Vista Arkansas for many years and will soon be relocating to Iowa near Burlington where Larry’s brother, Kerry and his family live. They are both enjoying retirement life.

Mandy’s parents, Jim and Sandy Patterson live in Kewanee Illinois and are active in First Christian Church. They have not fully retired as Sandy works for the school system as a teacher’s aide for mentally and physically handicapped children. This is strenuous work, but she loves it very much and can’t seem to pull herself away from it to retire. She also has been working concessions at the Peoria Civic Center and the Peoria Chiefs Baseball Complex. Jim also worked concessions in Peoria and drove a bus for the Kewanee School District, but has recently retired due to his diagnosis of stomach cancer.
