Greg Maher is a retired automotive service manager who resides in rural Nova Scotia. The second of eight children, he attended church with his father and siblings every Sunday. Writing was always a passion, and poetry was where he felt drawn, having read the complete works of Longfellow at the age of fourteen. Distracted by adolescence, Greg found his way back to faith with the help of the love of his life for the last forty-five years. He is now an elder in the church and enjoys bringing inspirational messages to the small congregation. His poetry fills a need to express his faith and reach out to others.
