Encore: Mission: Accomplished with Angel Artisans Bill and Shannon Jeralds

Bill Jeralds, had an established successful career as a techie, running call centers in Europe and the US for companies such as AT&T. In 2005, Bill had a life-altering experience; his body began failing so he was placed on a ventilator in a drug induced coma for several weeks. With no hope of saving him, his doctors requested consent to end his treatment but his wife Shannon, refused to give up on him stating, “He will get up and walk out of this hospital.” . Miraculously, Bill recovered and did just that. Two years later his unique Mission unexpectedly emerged. With no earlier experience or inclination towards woodworking or drawing, Bill was suddenly able to create visually stunning Angels from rudimentary images drawn on plywood planks.
