A Life Long Spiritual Walk as a Friend of Bill W. is a tribute to her formative years, being around her grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins, mom and dad, and all her loving animals.

It looks like an unpaved road of sacrifice, strength, and sorrow filled with uncertainty, but there is peace amid the storm.
