Biography of Janette Oke by Laurel Oke Logan
WHEN COMES
SPRING
JANETTE OKE
Dedicated with love to
my patient and peace-loving
fourth sister,
Margie L. Wiens,
and to her equally easygoing
husband, Wilf.
I love you both.
JANETTE OKE was born in Champion, Alberta, to a Canadian prairie farmer and his wife, and she grew up in a large family full of laughter and love. She is a graduate of Mountain View Bible College in
Alberta, where she met her husband, Edward, and they were married
in May of 1957. After pastoring churches in Indiana and Canada, the
Okes spent some years in Calgary, where Edward served in several positions on college faculties while Janette continued her writing. She has
written over four dozen novels for adults and children, and her book
sales total over twenty-two million copies.
The Okes have three sons and one daughter, all married, and are
enjoying their dozen grandchildren. Edward and Janette are active in
their local church and make their home near Didsbury, Alberta.
