People

I enjoy writing about and with others.
Many friends have let me share their stories.
They have inspired me, and I am sure they will give you a lift and maybe offer a life lesson.

Glenda Brown Knox Loose Track of Time
This is written in memory of my aunt, Glenda Kay Brown Knox (I am named after her), who left us much too early.  It is also a question of what heaven is like.  The answer is simple.  I have no idea, but I do not what will not be there.
