Produktbeschreibung
RICHARD JOSEPH BARRON had sailed the world over, fought a war, and returned home to Newfoundland to raise three children with his beloved wife. His life had been full of adventure, and he shared his stories without malice or ego, whenever he was asked. Until they were stolen from his memory. When 'Dick' Barron fought Alzheimer's, awareness of the disease was still limited. He knew that he was forgetting, but not why. His family knew that he was disappearing, but not how. Yet beneath the shadow of that slow tragedy, the spirit of his life was not lost. Emerging from the darkness, his daughter learned an important truth: what the mind forgets, the soul remembers.
Autorenporträt
Jacqui Tam is an award-winning communications professional, author and publisher. An intensely proud Newfoundlander, she has lived and worked in eastern, central and western Canada and given talks as far afield as the UK and Australia. After a 35-year career that took her to the executive level in the higher education sector, she started her own communication consulting firm, working with clients across the country. Most of her writing is non-fiction. And mostly she still listens more than she talks.
