I am a 57-year-old man living in Dillingham, Alaska. I have been married to Deirdre Daniel for 29 years, Deirdre. Deirdre is my soul mate, my best friend, my confidante…she makes me a whole person.
For the last 28 years, we have lived a life that can only be found in Acts:17:26 as we see a loving Father repeatedly intercede for us. Our lies has always been easy, but it has been an incredible adventure. In our 28 years, we have experienced spouse abuse, divorce and the death of our daughter. Sometimes we have fallen flat on our face, but each time our Good Good Father has lifted us up.
While our marriage is in many ways a fairy tale, it is not always a "happily ever after tale," but we think that our story will encourage others faith, and perhaps give some the hope of redemption. We hope that you enjoy our story.
