Publisher's Synopsis
LIFE, LOVE, AND HOPE
A retired librarian in a nursing home takes a good look around at her fellow residents. So many lives housed in this place, so many stories no one would ever write down... But even amidst the ailments and confusion, the loneliness and the boredom, there is happiness to be found and friendships to nurture, and Charlene Coffey Alexis brings the care center to life in Life Is a Four-Letter Word-a joyous, inspirational look at life from a perspective of wisdom and experience.
Life is all about four-letter words like hope, love, home, gift, pain-it's about friendly chats, budding friendships, shared newspaper clippings, family stories, and snapshots; fellow residents at worship, sharing gospel music, or tinkling away at the piano keys. The truth is, life is what you make it, so make it count!
