DeLayne Haga

DeLayne Haga graduated from Oklahoma State University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and has owned a secretarial/bookkeeping business since 1997. She and Chris Haga, married for thirty-two years, raised two sons. Her hobbies include reading, gardening, baking sweets, and documenting the family’s memories through photographs.

After her husband was diagnosed with cancer, DeLayne mentored caregivers of lung cancer survivors. She was a member of the Cancer Encouragement Group at her church and helped form a support group for caregivers. Following Chris’s death, she became involved with the Widows’ Encouragement Group, the Soul Care Ministry, and the Widows’ Ministry advisory committee at her church. Seeing a need for younger widows to have an opportunity to socialize with other widows, she helped form a group for young, active widows in and around her community.

Residing in McKinney, Texas, DeLayne is rekindling old friendships, making new friends, and continues to trust God to provide for her needs and guide her in the next chapter of her life.
