FATE WAS A blessing when a dream brought Lyle into my life once more. He was 46 years old and had never married. It had been 18 years since we'd seen each other.

FATE WAS A blessing when a dream brought Lyle into my life once more. He was 46 years old and had never married. It had been 18 years since we'd seen each other. I was almost 42 with 3 adult children and 2 ready to graduate high school. It is only once in a lifetime that a person is lucky enough to have true love. I had that with Lyle, and it is only with writing this book and reading his letters that I fully realize the depth of his being and his love for me. I heard this on a news program on marriage: "It is rewarding to know someone has been a witness to your life." I am that witness to Lyle's life. "Our song will endure through eternity." I hope that in reading this you will appreciate the soft heart, humor, intelligence, and love that was Lyle. The love he had for his family, animals, and creation. He was a man of integrity and fine character, and a good listener. The mark of a man is how a man lives his life and my husband was that man ; a good man who had a great mother and father. "Once In A Lifetime Comes A Man."
Autorenporträt
I met Edwin Grant Hamilton when I was working at the Montana State Prison, Deer Lodge, Montana. My position was Inmate Paint Crew Supervisor. I had 11 inmates on my crew, "Pappy" Hamilton was one of the. After listening to his story, I decided get him tapes and a recorder so he could tell his story. I was raised on a ranch, and after I left home, I held so many different jobs. I had married at 16; 4 children in 8.5 years. We were divorced and I married a man who didn't drink. He was a house painter by trade. I learned to paint and over the years worked as a foreman, prison crew leader, and I was the first woman hired in the Trades by the Anaconda Company. I had a son from this marriage. An injury prompted a change in my life. I enrolled at Spokane Falls Community College. I hadn't been in a classroom since I was 12 years old! I became a Substance Abuse Counselor, and I also took a writing class. The result was this book, The Making Of A Con. And I graduated with Honors.
