Thank you so much, Eugene! The book is awesome. The format is simple and surprisingly easy to read … the art work is great. I read mom’s stuff … she really does have a way with words … my mother-in-law said she loved it, too … I would love to have something like that for her side of the family, too … so my kids can know. -Leonard Toms, Jr.
