VanSteenhouse cares

To the editor:

I know Jim VanSteenhouse. I have enjoyed spending time with him and getting to learn more about him. He cares about our community. His life story, including building a successful business, surviving a vicious grizzly bear attack, and the following epiphany that filled his heart with a very special and understandable love for life and Jesus, is truly inspiring.

Although I hold my Catholic religious beliefs more privately, I know him to be sincere. I encourage you to introduce yourself. He is very approachable and easy to spot. Tall and lean, he often has a string of grizzly bear teeth around his neck. He’d love to meet you.
