Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Linda Hansen Harris


My wonderful husband, Van, is a classmate. We were married in 1978 at First Baptist Church, Grants Pass. Van is still employed as an electronics engineer. Van has a Bachelor's Degree from Oregon Institute of Technology, Klamath Falls. I earned an Associate of Science Degree, and Early Childhood Education Certificate from Portland Community College. I have worked as a preschool teacher, educational assistant, and home school teacher, and I am still working. We have two daughters, Tiffany and Priscilla. They are both married. Tiffany has 2 children, and Priscilla has 4 children. I am helping with home school teaching all my grandchildren. We have lived in Washington, California, Texas, and northern Oregon over the years, wherever Van found a good job. We enjoy day trips to see our beautiful world. We went to Maui, Kauai, Canada, and several states on vacation. We are Christians and members of Southwest Hills Baptist Church, and we praise God for all our blessings.
