From the Author:
I am a 58 year old professional electronic technician. I first wrote this life changing book as a gift to my parents (my grandparents have deceased.) When my parents created this priceless family heirloom, in their own words, I was filled with joy and treasured it! I immediately thought of my grandparents, and how I wished they had been able to create the same while they were still living. I knew that I MUST share Life's Greatest Gift with the world, especially to the younger generations. Consider giving this book to your loved ones from a younger generation before it's too late. My children are able to treasure their grandparent's stories, in their own words! This is a generational blessing and we must give this treasure to receive it.
Thank you and god bless you,
Donald Chamberlain
