The Woman God Gave Me ...

Adam said it first--"the woman you gave me..." He was talking to God and trying to alibi his disobedience by blaming it on his wife and on God who gave him that wife. When I talk to God about the woman He gave me, I praise Him for her. She deserves no blame for any wrong I've ever done, and deserves much credit for all the good I've ever done

I saw Doris for the first time when I was sixteen.  I was walking away from our house with a friend.  She was walking alone in the opposite direction.  My friend greeted her and introduced me ...

After a few dates with her I was in love.  She had a smile that rivaled sunlight. She was genuine and witty.  She saw something good in everyone and carried no grudges.  Her laughter was spontaneous, and her sympathies were genuine.  I decided that I wanted to serve a life-sentence with her.

Square Peg - An Anecdotal Memoir ...

This is my memoir.  It is not a history of local, state, national, or world events.  This is not biographical vignettes of other people.  The focus is narrow, virtually confined to what went on in my life--which is something like beating the humdrum.  I am not rich, famous, or even colorful.  I have written this memoir for family members from whom I have been often separated in time and space.  They are especially for my children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  Anyone else who is curious enough to read them should keep that in mind.

I chose the title because it fits me.  I have been, throughout my career, the proverbial square peg in a round hole.  I have often been a substitute and nearly always a misfit.  Nevertheless, life has been good and I have no complaints.
