Tim Linnemann
Tim lives in Issaquah with his spouse, Jocelyn, and son, Luke. He teaches philosophy at Bellevue College. He loves board games, music, anime, and, of course, talking philosophy.
Vivian Little
Vivian and her spouse, Jeff, live sometimes in Bellingham, sometimes in Mexico. She is a former ballerina, and co-owner of Dance Fremont. She is now calls herself a re-fired (not retired) dancer. She continues to teach dance and she finds many ways to serve her community, both in the US and Mexico. Her children and grandchildren live in the Seattle area, so when she visits them we get to see her face to face at Gift of Grace.
