REFLECTIONS "Growing up in the 50's" LEAD IN TO MY REFLECTIONS

LEAD IN TO MY REFLECTIONS

Somewhere in the midst of Dad passing on in 1989 at the age of 71 combined with myself growing older, I felt a need to share thoughts and stories that I could leave behind for my children and grandchildren so one day, they could gain a greater insight in to who this ole guy was. Thus, I was inspired complete my first book of my childhood reflections. I want to express my love and appreciation to my Mom and Dad and two of the greatest brothers a kid brother could ever hope for . It was my close bound family that gave me the memories and foundation to be able to share some fond memories now so many years later. 

From the time we are born we begin carving our path of life.  As we progress along that path, we are continually leaving a trail of experiences which mold us into who we are at this moment in time. Reflection of those experiences and the willingness to share them with our loved ones help create our legacy. Leaving a legacy comes in various forms; however, I truly believe the most treasured method is our personalized written thoughts, beliefs, and personal accounting of past experiences.
