Unfinished Business

This idea of mine, to write a book, has long been on the back

burner of my mind. I think of this book as life lessons learned from my

experiences, some good, some not so good. What seems to prove true is

that love and faith will get us through many a challenge. It was easier to

present this work in a journal-like format, straight- forward and truthful.

I have been blessed with the passage of enough time to see the humor in

some of my experiences.

Detroit is a good place to be from. I grew up in Detroit when it was

a beautiful, lively, and interesting city. I am a product of its educational

system, Kindergarten through Wayne State University, Masters Program.

Motown flourished and so did I! I was there until the beginning of

the end. After losing my brother, stepfather, and husband in Detroit I

escaped to Los Angeles, California. I continued my career as a special

education teacher in Los Angeles and later in Las Vegas. In 2002 I retired

after 40 years of teaching. Now in 2011 at 71 years of age I have found

a new passion!
