Publisher's Synopsis
Endurance is a blessing, and particularly so, for those who experienced and survived life's trials and tribulations. I did and I can't exactly say what has been the secret. I am now 69 years old, but I can say I have had a satisfying life. I have lived through being poor in an abandoned mining camp and worked my way up getting a college degree. I have lived though 2 marriages, deaths in the family, my cancer, heart break and pain. I'm a mother, a stepmother, a grandmother, and a mother-in-law several times! Like many families today, I have lived through the current recessions. Through it all, I have not only survived, I have thrived. It occurred to me that I've learned many life lessons that I can impart, not only to my family, but to younger generations. For this reason, I want to share my story...the story of my family!
