Produktbeschreibung

Anytime I have been to a family gathering or get-together with friends, much of the time becomes devoted to telling tales of days gone by. These stories I listened to as a child and throughout my life. Those of my family and friends that arent here in person now are still here in the stories about them and people, places, and events that we all seem to never forget. However, Ive noticed a flaw to the telling of our memories. When those who can recall and tell the stories are about to pass away almost always, so does all that they remembered. So I decided that as I myself love to tell the stories, I am not going to let that happen to me. So I have been writing short stories so my children and grandchildren will be able to always have them to read. Since I began writing, Ive gained interest from my cousins and old friends who also want to read them. As time has moved forward, the number of memories continues to grow, and I write more memories to keep. I hope that reading this compilation of short stories will give you some opportunity to recall. Life should have smiles and a laugh or two, and I hope you find them within.

Autorenporträt

Rick Houser was born and raised in rural Ohio in the fifties and sixties. The youngest of three children with a sister and brother that served as a second set of parents to him in that they included him in their lives, which accounts for many of his memories from his earliest years. His loving parents worked at his side on their farm and helped him to grow up knowing that life can be hard but that be sure to remember the good things that you achieve. Obviously, Rick has had a large share of good memories, as this book will reveal. His family also taught him humility, as we are no better than anyone else; but on the same token, no one is better than him. Love of family comes first in his life, and because of that, along with the two prior teachings, he was raised on a common thread that will run throughout his book. When reading, most will get the feeling he is not only talking about himself, but the reader also will feel they have experienced these things with him. This book makes a strong argument that life in the fifties, sixties, and seventies were a great time to have lived.
