Although I wanted to honor my dad in this book, I also wanted to preserve a history for future generations. The world is constantly changing, and the strength and simple joys that we had several years ago sometimes seem to get lost in the hustle and bustle of today's world. Life was harder then, but the simple things in life were good enough to keep us going, along with a faith in a loving and kind God. I am hoping that by sharing these memories, it will show the strength of family, the joy that family can bring, and the love that should never get lost. Many of us have family stories and antics we treasure in our memories. Most of mine involve my dad with his songs and poetry. Remembering (second edition) is a collection of these memories. The first edition of this book was simply a recitation of those poems and songs. Some of the songs were written by Dad, yet many were songs he heard his daddy sing as he was growing up on the farm in the 1920s and 30s. With the second edition, I have taken it a bit farther. Many of the poems written had stories that went along with them, which have been included. Where possible the history behind some of the music and variations to the lyrics has been included. Additionally, I have added family stories and history; both bad and good; happy and sad. These memories of love, laughter, heartache and struggles should not be forgotten over time. This second edition also includes poetry that had been lost previously and some additional poetry from Daddy's aunts, children and grandchildren.

I was born and raised in Southern California, primarily in the Victor Valley of the High Desert. I received an Associates Degree from Victor Valley Community College, and went on to get my Bachelors and Juris Doctorate from Western State University. I am the youngest of five children, which include Jim, Bob, Linda and Ross. I have many memories of my older siblings, and the stories told by my mother and father of earlier times with family and friends.I still reside in Apple Valley, with my husband, Bob and my youngest son, Bobby, but we travel around the country as often as possible in our motorhome. I have four wonderful children, Danny, Dusty, Chris, and Bobby, a great stepson, Dan, and two beautiful grandsons, Kaden and Cole, from my son Dusty and his beautiful wife, Tara. God has truly blessed me, more than I deserve. I have always loved music, whether it's been playing my guitar with friends, performing in college musicals, singing in choirs, singing with my dad, or singing karaoke with my brother, Ross. It has been the constant in my life, and has always been the thing that makes me the happiest, and next to my family, provides for my happiest memories. That is why "remembering" is so precious to me, I can share a small amount of those memories with others.
