I just spent the last week reading all of the stories in the collection. Got "dust in my eyes" several times, thinkin' about grandpa, and Uncle Lester, men who showed us how to be a man, which is just as much about going to work every day to support your family as it is fighting like a madman if your family is ever threatened. JK, you are from a different age, and, I think, a better one. I wish your stories were required reading at all schools. We would be raising a generation of ladies and gentlemen, instead of the current crop of drug dealers and hooligans. Rest assured, my three sons will be learning many of these lessons, from me, and from you.
Thank you.
