Her father, Martin Luther Enders, was pastor of St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Cumberland, Md., when I was a child. I learned early on that this girl was special. The Enders family moved away, and I grew up and taught school in Allegany County, Md., for 34 years. I eventually moved to Fredericksburg to be near my daughter's family, the McCormacks. And then I rediscovered Mary Phoebe.
Wonders never cease, indeed.
