About My Family
I was widowed after more than 50 years of marriage to John Paget, who was CEO of Plumbline Consulting. I have two surviving children. Tod is a Houston firefighter and paramedic, and Aki is a public school teacher to special needs children. I have five grandchildren. Ty is a Dallas firefighter and paramedic, Brittany is a children’s minister, Clayton is a Ph.D. student at Texas Tech, Ryan works in food services, and Cole is in the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets.
About My Ministry
As of January 2023, I have served 57 years in disaster relief with the American Red Cross, 40 years as a chaplain for SBC Disaster Relief and 30 years as an FBI chaplain. Today, I continue to deploy to disasters and other critical events, domestically and internationally.
I teach at Gateway Seminary and Denver Seminary as an adjunct professor and continue to teach through International Critical Incident Stress Foundation, Inc., K-LOVE Crisis Response Care, Crisis Plumbline and SBC churches and programs. My objective during this season of my life is to continue to equip others to provide ministry through disaster relief and crisis intervention.

SBC Chaplaincy
Chaplaincy is a vital frontline ministry and extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites, and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless, and advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in hard-to-reach places.
The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain or counselor are established by their institution and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy or counseling ministry involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
