It seems that our lifetime slips by very quickly. Many times I have reflected on my parents and grandparent's discussions of what had taken place in their childhood and as they grew into adults. The above generations did not keep records or documents pertaining to their generations other than photos or what they included in their family bible. For this reason, I have assembled a recollection of documents, photos and notes regarding what I can remember over the past eighty years. With the advantage of computers, I can now present the history of my life and the dreams that I've been lucky enough to fulfill in the form of this book. Enjoy.
