Autorenporträt
Tom Kelly is a recently retired CRNA who lives with his wife and three pets in western Illinois. The desire to write the book started in 1993, when he first learned the story of Rose. Serious writing did not happen until he officially retired in 2015. The book started slow, mostly because he is not a proffesional writer and as his wife would say, didn't know how to use a comma or semi-colon. Slowly the book started to take shape and with the editing help of his wife and a professional editor, the book was finished.
