I loved high school … cheer-leading, ballgames, great friends and fun. How fortunate we were to have lived in an era of higher moral standards, where we called good “good” and bad “bad,” and we felt safe walking down the street even at night. What a blessing those simple days were! 

Since high school, I have worked in the medical field for two great doctors, and I really enjoyed my career. I have a wonderful son, Barry Bullard, a sweet step daughter, Angela Bratcher Cusick, and a fine son-in-law, Pat Cusick. I also have been blessed with two step grandchildren, but we all dropped the step a long time ago! I’m so thankful for the blessings of God on our family. 

In 2018, my husband of 40 years, Ron Bratcher, was killed in an accident. We have all missed him so much! He was a good Christian man, and he truly loved his family. We’re sure thankful for the sweet memories! God is faithful in the heartbreaking times we go through, and only He can give comfort and healing. I love that hymn, “Through it All.” 

In the year 1999 I was impressed to keep writing Christian poetry. My son insisted they had to be out there for people to see, so he set up a website. The poems kept coming to me, and I kept writing and adding them to the website. After having so much positive response from people all over the world, we felt the poems needed to be put into book form. God blessed me with a great team, and we were able to get 5 books of Christian poetry into print. This year, 2025, we’ve entered a new phase of the ministry by putting the poems to song. The songs can now be heard on all music platforms, and we’ve recently added a new website where they can be heard ad free. Hope you’ll visit the site: faithpoetrysongs.com.
