Sitting in church one day in May of 2017, the Lord put an idea in my mind to write a memoir for my children and grandchildren, to give them an idea of what life was like in my generation. IÕm what is considered a Ôbaby boomer,Õ someone born during the post-World War II baby boom between 1946-1964. The reason I knew this idea was from God is because itÕs not something I would have thought of on my own. I didnÕt consider my life interesting enough to write about, but the Lord reminded me IÕve lived through a lot of history which would be interesting to record for future generations. It would also be a record of our family tree, so IÕve included many names and dates. I pray this will be a blessing to all who read it.
