About the Author

When asked why she writes, Marie answers, "I write to get acquainted with myself." So, now take a moment to get acquinted with Marie.

Marie began life in 1921 in Medford, Oregon, but she spent most of her formative years in the Cariboo Country. Orville Fletcher and Marie were married there in 1936. Fourteen years later they were able to buy the historical 4000-acre-144 Mile Ranch in the San Jose River Valley.

In between time - spare-time - sometime - a family of eight children, 15 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren were born. Orville passed away some years ago, and Marie knowing that he wished the ranch to stay in the family divided and sold it to various family members. Marie still lives there where she continues to be very much the heart of this ranching family. From her beautiful log home at the center of the ranch, Marie provides never-ending support, encouragement, wise old remedies and stories - cinnamon buns and love.
