Rose Marie Miller Interview

Jack applied to teach English in a Christian school in central California in a predominantly Dutch community. We now lived on $285 a month, enough to pay for food and rent. We squeezed into a two-bedroom home. Our house was not on the side of town where the wealthy farmers lived but on the side where the one-room jail was. We had no phone, no car, no bank account, no insurance, and no credit cards. But because Jack taught at the high school, our children were able to attend Christian school for free. I was content.
