Marie-Rose Fox

Marie-Rose Fox was born in Portugal. She relocated with her family to France, where she spent most of her teenage years. Whilst there, she developed a great love for languages as a challenge (Portuguese, French, Spanish, Italian and English). At just eighteen she immigrated with her family to Australia, where they lived in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney. She resided within this community for most of her adult life until she met and married Stephen. Circumstances led them to live on the Gold Coast of Queensland, where they met with tragedy in 2007 when her only child, Michelle was brutally murdered.

As a consequence of this horrific ordeal, she suffered deep depression, so given the need for change she and her husband chose a country lifestyle for a season. As a reader of this ‘all telling book of her life’ you’ll be glad to hear she climbed out of her ‘black hole’ of depression through her faith and love for God.
