After the death of her husband, she got a job as head secretary and hostess for a local health clinic. Because of the late hours, she often leaves Kelly with his Godparents, the Woods.
In her refusal to accept charity from the Woods who are Kelly's Godparents, she has silently endorsed her son's journey into womanhood as she buries her ongoing grief in her work which continues to call for her abilities as she learns and grows into a modern businesswoman.

It is during a night of passion that he discovers that his love is returned, yet even though his family supports him and Kelly, he fears the retaliation from the hate-mongers that caused him to reject Kelly.
Then he stands up to them and in doing so ends their legacy of hate, but not before the price has been paid, leaving Kelly broken and in despair. When she recovers, she accepts his friendship and completes her transition into becoming a woman to find Johnny there for her.
After an accident, he awakens to find Kelly there for him. During this time, they reconcile and he finds that his passion for her is now love and they marry, uniting two hearts into one as their souls merge in that mystical union of marriage.

He loves all people and has instituted a Radical Hospitality Policy of welcoming all people regardless of their gender identity or sexual identity leading the community in embracing the Trans-Gender Community.
When Pastor Patrick took over, he immediately started a healing process that healed many of the hurts and gave the Church the Vision to form the Special Needs School for handicapped students. Part of that Vision was to Minister to the trans-gendered, so under his leadership the Church openly sought out and invited them to join.
At first, both the Church and community were reluctant, but when the Rainbow Fellowship merged with the Church, the influx of openly crossdressers, gay, lesbian, and transgendered ended the doubt merging eased the doubt caused by Linden's confusion.
Slowly, over the years, those who left were returning. They had all come back because they enjoyed listening to my concerts and the Pot Luck Dinner served after the Evening Service. Now, the hurt feelings were healed and those that had stayed home were returning. Best of all, those returning were bringing in others as well.
To help the congregation to meld together, Pastor Patrick asked for Volunteer Counselors to help ease the returning members into Sunday School Classes and form new classes for the now burgeoning membership. It took a while to properly train them, but after training, the new counselors were able to smooth any ruffled feathers.
Because of the increase, he finally got the help he needed in Associate and Student Pastors who lightened his load and preached the Sermon at different Services, when he met Kelly, he knew that she was a Godsend.
Young Kelly's an tics and love of life reawakened many stone cold hearts in both the Church and school, leading those who had lost their way to renew their Faith and forget the past.
