The ugliness just snowballed after this. It ended in the worst abuse yet. Laura’s pain took on many forms. All the Parkers were tough though. It takes them years to regain some semblance of normalcy. Funerals, assaults and trials is all they seem to experience. They proved faith and family could get them through the worst and end well.
There may be a light at the end of the tunnel. After all is said and done, Laura was the winner. James and friends were the losers.
Living in South Bend Indiana, she met her husband of 29 years, Steve. They now reside in Mishawaka Indiana. She retired as a LPN after 40 years. Husband, family and friends are her first passion. Next come reading and sewing quilts to donate. At 74 this is her first book.
