-What a powerful story! Thank you for not thinking it robbery to share. Isn't love an amazing thing? -Papa- wrote very well. He was brilliant in his observations. I never knew any of my grandparents and I -envy- ever so slightly, those persons blessed to have that richness as part of their family quilt. God bless. Continue to share your grandparents with the rest of us.- ---Annette Smith, Author of Etched ............................................................................................. -I was blown away! Your detailed descriptions of your loved ones, accompanied by those magnificent letters from 1914, left me speechless. There is nothing more inspirational and soul stirring than reading a story about true love based in reality. Thanks for sharing.- ---Rebecca McFadden, Author of Surfing to Find the One ............................................................................................. -You've given us such a lovely gift. I was touched on so many levels by: The determination and devotion of your grandfather and the abiding love between your grandparents that is revealed in excerpts from his letters The glimpses of the challenges faced by a West Indian immigrant determined to make it in America The parallels between your son and his great-grandfather The reminder you have given us to maintain the precious human connection through letter writing in this age of technology- Barbara Gardner, Instructor, Boricua College ............................................................................................. -Your grandfather is awesome! His writings are poetry from the heart. Several times, I just stopped reading and said, -Oh my God, this man is bad!- -My head is full, my heart is overflowing, my pen is ready, paper is convenient and ink is nearby: All I have to do is write.- Shoot...pure, passionate, prayerful poetry!- William A. Jones III, Community Leader
