    About this ebook

    With the support of my three children, Christie, Tammy and Richard jr. and further encouragement from my niece Debbie and nephew Anthony I was finally able to finish this book.
    This is a true life story that contains humor, violence, and tragedy & heartbreak, stories of what it was really like to grow up in a 1950's small town. This totally non-fiction book is entertaining as well as sad. I told it as I remembered it, and wrote it exactly as it happened.
    I am now living in Crystal Lake, Il. and am a proud grandfather of 6 girls and 3 boys and cannot wait for them to read this.

    About the author? I was going to delete this because this book is about the author and most of you already know who I am but didn't know me back then, so there, I'm glad that I cleared that up. This is a fun trip through the 1950's and I hope you enjoy it. This book is factual and is told exactly the way I remember it. Based on my memory, some stories are long and some are short. I always tell things "the way it is," straight forward... You can believe it or not, but have fun and just go with it.

      You are a liar. I know your family and what you say is untrue. Why don't you write a chapter about how you were a coward who went AWOL from the Marines and robbed an older couple while doing so. You were afraid to return to the Marine brig and instead preferred to go to jail and become a Felon. POS
