So many women made a great first impression on the premiere episode of The Golden Bachelor<\/a><\/em>. However, bachelor Gerry Turner<\/a><\/strong> could only present one lucky lady with the first impression rose. Not surprisingly, this honor went to the fun-loving and multi-talented Faith Martin<\/strong>.\n<\/p>\n Faith is a high school teacher from Benton City, Washington and is 61 as of publication. She has many interests and talents, including radio hosting, singing and horseback riding.<\/p>\n On the premiere episode of The Golden Bachelor<\/em>, Faith impressed Gerry when she arrived at the mansion on a motorcycle. After pulling off her helmet, the spirited single said she was proof that you can \u201clive fast and not die young.\u201d Later, she wowed Gerry again by serenading him with her guitar.<\/p>\n Faith finds herself on the show after being married for 21 years and getting divorced in 2005. According to ABC, \u201cFaith has two sons and four grandkids that she loves more than anything in this world.\u201d<\/p>\n Gerry was clearly impressed with Faith when she rode in on a motorcycle and he seemed to be taken with her when she sang a \u201cgorgeous\u201d song as she played the guitar. However, when he presented the grandmother of four with a rose, he revealed that something else swayed his decision.<\/p>\n \u201cI want you to know you made this impression not because you rode in on a motorcycle, not even because you have a beautiful voice and sang a song to me,\u201d Gerry shared, \u201cbut because of what you are doing right now, you are making me feel very special.\u201d<\/p>\n Gerry later reflected on his decision during an interview with the Hollywood Reporter<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cOf course, her entrance on a motorcycle stood out,\u201d he said. \u201cLater, when I met her for a brief conversation, her singing really stood out. But I think the reason she got that first impression rose was the look in those soft brown eyes. That was really pretty wonderful.\u201d<\/p>\nWho Is Faith Martin?<\/h2>\n
