Dale Carr, RScP
I've been a member of the Napa Valley Center for Spiritual Living since 1980. I've been a Practitioner since 2000. I've also been an Assessment Counselor at North Bay Regional Center since 1980, working with individuals with developmental disabilities. I love participating at our Center. It's my local family. My daughter, Trisha, and my two adult grandchildren, Danny and Taylor, reside in Ohio. I have a wide variety of interests that include volunteering at the Napa Valley Opera House, making jewelry, fashion, acting and theater, shopping in thrift stores, traveling, dancing, reading, and collecting a bunch of things-especially cows. I am extremely grateful for all of the good in my life and for the wonderful Religious Science teachings of our founder, Ernest Holmes, that have changed my life. You'll usually find me on Sundays at the back of the sanctuary as I love
