Book Description
Ms. Day was born and raised in a small town in upstate New York during the late 30's through the early 50's. Being part of a family of nine children and an alcoholic father brought on many hardships, yet there were many delightful moments as well. "Mama's Diamonds" is a collection of these tales. The story tells of the extent that the mother and children of this poor Irish family had to go through and the things they had to endure in order to survive. Their wily nature helped. Mama O'Brien loved all her children and would have been shocked to know what devious means they used and the risks they took in order to obtain some of the necessities of life. Perhaps she knew, but just couldn't bear to acknowledge that this was for the most part, required in order to supplement the meager substance provided by their father. One might ask about her precious diamonds and their worth, and why couldn't they be used to help support the family; but they did ... just not in a materialistic sense.

Meet Me Under the Old Naseberry Tree
Author: Hortense M. Jenkins
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1606479202
Category : Families
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The first family created by God produced many generations and will continue until the end of time. While we journeyed through this world we realized disagreements exist but regardless of the source there's a solution-forgiveness. Jesus set the first example on the Cross of Calvary: 'Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they have done' that's what we need to do; forgive each other when pain and suffering is involved in times of disagreements. Jesus knew what would happen to the first family He created from His own image and we are no exception, He emphasized the word 'peace' He gave it to us and left it with us; so let there be peace amongst families and our fellow human being. Plant the family seed of love for the next generation and maintain the peace of God. Hortense M. Jenkins {Lawrence} a native of Jamaica West Indies comes from a large family, which she embraced and continued to do. The love and close ties that she maintained for her families and friends alike earned her much love and respect. Her love of 'getting the families together' are sometimes carried beyond her generosity or mistaken for 'Father Christmas' or 'gimmi, gimmi'. Young and old enjoys her company as well as her constant outstretched hands and any possible way that she can help out when a situation present itself. We are very blessed to have someone like her to call sister, aunt, and cousin. While we look forward to her visits under the Old Naseberry Tree, we also hope and pray for her continued success on the path she has chosen. She and her husband Mark live in Queens New York.
