In This Valley I Grew is my own story of growing up in the '50s and '60s in a small Appalachian neighborhood on the outskirts of a town called Inez, population 500. It is a story of hardships, innocence, and faith. It describes the people who lived all around me, who, in some way or other, helped shape and mold my life into what it is today. I can honestly say that there isn't one person in my childhood who left such a negative impression on me that I'd rather not remember him or her. It is my prayer that those of you who read my stories get the feeling that I am just talking to you face to face, in a relaxed way, recounting the events of my life as I remember them and that you find yourself reliving them with me, or better yet, that they bring back your memory, things you had long forgotten, and that a smile might cross your lips and make your day a little brighter. If you don't like sentiment then you probably won't like this book, for that is the only way I know how to tell it, through the eyes of love as I saw it and through my heart's emotions as I felt them. God Bless!
