Gwendoline was born and raised on a family farm with 9 siblings.

Gwendoline and Peter Mueller are partners and she enjoys the company of two pets Benni and Princess.

She is very proud of her farm background as it has given her the values she cherishes. That being a good attitude, Christian values; principles and a strong work ethic.

Her parents, especially her mother, were a strong advocate for education. The family also valued gathering for work, fun and social events.

 

Gwendoline has one son who is married and it seems that the one grandchild is the apple of her grandmothers eye. Her son also accepted the passion for continued education as he is now back at university.

 

When Gwendoline was considering post secondary education she first considered being a nurse, but then realized that she does like to help people...but not necessarily sick people. So she choose education as her new passion.

Her Bachelor of Education degree in 1986 led to teaching for 33 year. 20 year in the public school system and 13 years at the Medicine Hat College in adult development. She also obtained a Masters Degree from the University of Lethbridge in 2020.  Retirement from teaching has now presented the open question "What do I do now"? Her passion for continuing education has led her to many new interests and passions like painting, belly-dancing, computer and many other things. Gwendoline has also been driven to being healthy, fit, creating a society that values all people, and following world events.

 

She is currently part of Rotary, Kiwanis, Saamis Immigration, and the MH Police Commission.

 

Gwen hinted that she will have a new and exciting project in the "near" future.
