This will tell you all you need to know about Farm Program Coordinator Judy Harper: three months after being diagnosed with breast cancer and having surgery, Ms. Harper worked a 100 hour week to allow a co-worker the opportunity to attend a church youth group mission.
She says: "if you love what you do, it isn't work."
That was put to the test in January of 2007 when she got snowed in with several people she serves for five consecutive days - no relief staff, no breaks, no problem!
