Linwood Hosea Gordon-The Five people you meet in heaven
What an awesome snapshot into the past. When hard work, strong family ties were essential, sticking together for better or for worse. Life in those days were not about quitting or giving up. You play the hand you were dealt. You did not resist your calling or passion, you pursued it. The culture was very […]
