Therese Woelfel’s grandfather, Charles A. Linsmeier, was a Lighthouse Service keeper at several stations on the Great Lakes from 1920 to 1953. Therese’s book “Our Guiding Light” tells the story of Linsmeier’s daughter Vivian, who was Therese’s mother. It also tells the story of how Vivian became a “steady beacon of light and hope for those who encountered life storms.” Therese also discusses her personal spiritual journey that led to the writing of her book.
