Remember When Maureen Young

A book every woman will cherish. Written in a conversational tone, Remember When is an eclectic collection of short stories and poems that tell the story of six generations of women. Peppered with old photos and short poems, the stories will evoke your own memories of growing up. "Paper Flowers" captures one woman's neon personality and love of life. "Mount St. Helen's" recalls the flame of young married love and the chaotic early years of raising children. As the years fly by, "The Silver Clasp" captures the busy years of parenting teens and college students, the birth of a first grand-child and long-lasting friendships. Philosophical "Reflections" explores questions of faith and the gifts of the spirit. Like the fairy tale story, "Cinderella" counts down the passing years. "The Ewe Lamb" captures the joy of animals who touch our hearts: our parents were right, it does take a lot of time and it does take a lot of money, but our lives are enriched beyond measure by having them in our family. The sum total is one family's journey through six generations of memories, one family's celebration of life - one family's "Wealth Untold."
