Love and Lollipops

Charles has just been appointed to the Naval Academy and was starting a new life with Mary Anne. Ahead of them both, were joyous episodes of love, marriage, and the trials and tribulations of family life. There were years of separation that brought times of loneliness and despair. These periods were leveled on the scales of life by letters from his love and soul mate. All signed and sealed with a kiss as love and lollipops. Through a series of short vignettes Charlie has pulled together the story of his life with his soul mate, Mary Anne. He has preserved episodes which have meaning for him and which help form the values he treasures but sees disappearing in our modern culture. He has taken us on an enjoyable adventure which awaits every new couple contemplating wedding bliss. In our busy lives, generations pass on and we often reflect back and grieve because we miss our loved ones. Other times we are saddened because we wish we could have shared more of our lives with them. If only we had truly listened, shared our dreams, and enjoyed the laughter. This inspiring book is truly a blessing and a generous gift of remembrance - of time, love, wisdom, and family
