UNKNOWN

Life of an Unknown Lady by Chelock Mitchell is a moving account of a memoir, which weaves its strong strands of determination, love, and religion to bring into light the life of a woman, whose life was anything but normal. Chelock introduces her story as a child born in a small town that emerged after the war, but that was still affected by difficulties and living in the shadow of increasing family love. Quitting high school, breeding at sixteen, and having unplanned pregnancies, financial difficulties and the tragic loss of her son failing to be provided with any cushions, she managed to overcome all this defiantly. Writing about her journey of grief, Chelock proves the strength that someone should have to accept the process, rebuild life, and teach children and grandchildren the lessons that are immortal. It is a memoir about the strength of the family bonds and the silent bravery behind persevering, the illuminating glow of faith that helps us go through the most devastating time in life. On the whole, it is a heartfelt eulogy to a well-lived life that found a chord with people who were inspired by the life of triumph at the face of adversity.
