In the year 2020, the worldwide COVID-19 virus closed down the entire world when we were quarantined and advised to stay in our homes. Everything came to a standstill. It was then that the process of writing this book began.

It is said that everyone’s life is a book. After years of recording events in journals and keeping photo albums and homemade movies with the hand-me-downs from three generations, I decided to share my life in book form.

Then at the advanced age of ninety years, I was amazed that my memory was still able to recall these memories. However, they are the clutter of my collections. I thank God for the early morning hours of quiet time spent in God’s “Word” with my Bible and devotionals and for my mind and physical ability to pursue this venture.
