As a teenager in the post-war years she found herself pursued by romantic suitors. Her choice of husband was ultimately guided by her early discovery of God and faith, which was how she found herself a newly-married woman struggling to run her first homeÿin the wilds of the Shetland Isles, trying to make ends meet on the slim pay of her minister husband and the kindness of the islanders.
