Patricia C. Stendal

I was born in South Dakota, grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Social Studies. I am particularly interested in American History and American Indians.

I married Chadwick M. Stendal, a civil engineer, and taught in the Minneapolis Public schools. We had three children in Minneapolis, and later a fourth child, who was born in Colombia, South America.

In 1964 we went to Colombia, South America to live with a primitive Indian tribe. Presently we have 15 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. My interests remain American history, Indians of North and South America, reading, writing, education of Indian children, cross-stitch, and World News. In March 2015, my husband Chadwick M. Stendal passed on to his heavenly home. During the year of 2016, 5 new grandchildren, including twins, were added to our family. I continue to live in Colombia, South America and have the plan to write one more book during 2017.
