About this Item

Paperback. My father brought tears and laughter to our family as he related many interesting stories from the time of his childhood to his retirement from work. Inevitably much would be forgotten over time and can never be retold in the same manner. It was an innocent enquiry from my then 10 year old daughter about his childhood and my husband's encouragement that prompted Pa to write about his life for the sake of his progenies. He became a Christian in his mid-50's and as he reflected on his past, he could see God preserving him as a young orphan, molding him for a career and marriage and preparing an eternal home in heaven for him. Pa had proven with God's help, one can rise above the struggles in life and achieve social mobility. Diligence is the key to success and Pa was my inspiration.
