Nostalgically Yours, Shirley Shirley Farley

This story of an American family needs to be told. It reveals the love they held for each other, along with the pain, neglect, and wrong decisions parents sometimes make in trying to raise a family. Their disappointing choices often reflected on the nine children, the feelings of abandonment and rejection, which they fought hard to overcome. Many obstacles arose; alcohol prevailed; so did the anguish of sexual abuse and the loss of loved ones, (to early in their lives), which took dynamic courage from the remaining to survive the odds. Those that succeeded have accomplished more than deemed possible, capturing happiness with their own families. Those who did not survive will always be alive in their memories, leaving behind a powerful impact upon their lives. A captivating book, easy to read that will leave readers with a better understanding of the desires and hardships some people have to endure, when growing up.
