Reseña del libro "The Day My Sister Died: Finally, I Heard Your Cries (en Inglés)"
This a biography of my sister, Connie's life. It will depict her life from childhood through adulthood and the many situations she endured, as a child in her immediate family, the father who denied her, and the love she believed she did not receive from her parents, because of her darker complexion. In addition, it is also my belief that Connie's pain went on for years well into her adult life and nobody knew it, due to the ongoing turbulence that was happening in her life; such as the abuse, mentally and physically by her exhusband, her son's constant problems with the law and drugs, her possibly loosing her daughter, and the lover that attempted to kill her and the things he did to her child. Finally, I believe that it was "Connie's Broken Heart" that led to her early demise. Barbara Spruill (Thornton) was born in Montezuma, Ga., raised and educated in Newark, NJ, and now resides in East Earl Pa., with her husband and family. As a retired postmaster and educator Barbara loves traveling, dancing, reading, family gatherings, real life stories (tear-jerking flicks), and spending time with her great-great granddaughter. Alicia J. Gary lives in Seminole, Fla. with her husband, Robert and their two children, Armanee and Justin. Alicia has been employed for over twenty years in the US Postal Service. Alicia is quiet and reserved, but the most fulfilling part of life is spending time with her family relaxing at home; and/or spending time with her daughter traveling to National Cheerleading events.
