I moved to Hood River in 1963 with my family of 5 children, and was grateful to be back in the Northwest following 13 years teaching on the Cheyenne Reservation, as well as Lind, Washington, Fort Benton, Montana, and Phoenix, Arizona.  My husband Cliff retired after 39 years of teaching math, physics, and weather. Our four daughters and son are married and living in Hood River or within 1 1/2 hours from here. Our seventeen grandchildren are a great joy at our frequent family gatherings.

I specialize in families relocating, and I love the challenge of discovering a customer's whims and desires, then matching that with the right home!

Hood River, its beautiful valley, the Columbia River Gorge, Mt. Adams and Mt. Hood provide exceptional family living, varied recreational activities and unusual business opportunities. An hour drive to Metropolitan Portland and two and a half hour drive to the Coast are other reasons for many buyers choosing to make Hood River their home.
