Solange Edith Valdez Watts was born in Chile in 1964. By the time she was 8 years old, there was political turmoil in Chile and her family migrated to Australia.
Her father had joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Chile, but on settling in to Melbourne, had drifted away from the Church and Solange was raised as a Catholic. Missionaries came to visit and reignited the desire to be with the Church, and at 18 years of age, Solange was baptized and confirmed. As a young lady, Solange was introduced to Richard Watts, a recently returned missionary. They married after a short courtship of about 8 months (well, that's sort of average for LDS). They had 4 children and a few grand-kids, when Solange was diagnosed with a terminal illness, while her youngest son Nathan, was serving as a missionary in London. Solange miraculously survived long enough to see Nathan come home, which was all she prayed for.
In this episode I interview, her husband Richard and their children - Dionne, Chantelle, Michael and Nathan. This is a truly uplifting episode! We hope you enjoy it!
