Biography

From a pioneer family of Clearwater, Idaho, I kinda took after my grampa ~ He was a county commissioner. I was a city councilman, elected in Hood River, where my husband William H. (Bill) Davis brought me from Portland, and where we raised our family. We belong to LAMP (Lutheran and Methodist) and have root-strong beliefs about local self-government. May the good lord help us elect Mitt Romney.
