STORIES FOR EVERYONE
Richard & Esther Provencher worked together on many stories, posted on this site. They originally began by writing for their four children and five grandchildren. They hope you will enjoy sharing these stories with your family and friends.
They have fostered children, adopted one young fellow and are very busy in their church work. Also they are involved in community outreaches with feeding the homeless as well as visiting nursing home residents, is a treat for them. They were married March 27, 1975 in Sarnia, Ontario and moved to Truro, Nova Scotia in 1986..
Richard continues to recover from his stroke in 1999, through prayers from family, friends and the love of his precious wife, Esther.
