COMMENTARY: Never Eighteen Pass it On (Part 2)

Several months ago, I was honored to be offered the opportunity by author Megan Messina Bostic to read and pass on her debut, Never Eighteen. Attached is my first blog entry describing my choice, St Michael Indian School in AZ. I chose this group because of their Christmas Wish List on Amazon.

Below is a letter I received from Melissa Coles, the School Librarian in response to receiving the book:

COMMENTARY: RIP Debra Lea

It was 1989 when I saw the job posting for the Oklahoma Manufacturers’ Directory Coordinator. I had no idea what the publication was. Turns out, the directory was brand new to the state and Debra Lea was who made the directory what it was.

At the time, Debra was a freshly minted OU business school grad, She took on the job with enthusiasm and a forward-thinking attitude that made the directory easier to search and publish even though database tools were nowhere what they are now.

COMMENTARY: RIP Cindy Heinrich

I was in the theater restroom washing my hands after a particularly traumatic movie about whistleblowers whose name I cannot recall now. I had to compose myself before I went outside.

The woman at the sink beside me glanced in my direction. She was in her forties with reddish blonde hair in a ponytail. Like me, she was dressed casually in jeans and a loose top.
