Abstract

There are many times which need to be remembered, and these are but a few. A beginning, we hope, for more remembrances to come, as each contributor has given us only one story and knows so much more. So much more that should be recorded before life passes by and the events are forgotten. The focus of this book is the f am ily, And it is a strong reminder of just how much each of us has learned from his or her family or, at times, how much no other family has meant to ours. America is first am o nations in the importance it places on the family unit. Though the institution of the family has been bent by a rising divorce rate a nd changed by other, less drastic events, an American's first allegiance is still to his family.
