This is a true story, a memoir with excitement and adventure. My life was spent in the hectic world of business, and the time had come to give my expertise back to less fortunate people as a volunteer in the Democratic Republic of Congo, just as the vicious civil war was ending and help was needed by the United Nations Peacekeepers to keep it that way. Little did I realize the plight of the poor, helpless Congolese people who were sick and starving with nothing but hope. I was determined to help some of these destitute survivors, which I was happy to do.

Autorenporträt
Growing up as one of seven children in small-town Ontario, I was accustomed to hearing and sharing stories. My only connection with the big wide world was through my very devout mother, who sent multiple packages of clothing and other goods to the Congo. I had to assure her I was not a missionary, but sought her prayers. The Congo at that time was recovering from a nasty civil war, which whetted my appetite for adventure.
