Chapters XVI and XVII is the sequel to A Moment in Time which is a story of encouragement that should be read by all who have an interest in the human journey. Born in rural Eastern North Carolina of parents near poverty, Chris has told his story from the heart. From his southern roots, Chris is masterful at scattering bits of southern humor throughout the story he tells, which brings a smile to your face. Death brought on despair at an early age for Chris and drugs brought on challenges to an already confusing world. Concealing a deep dark secret was hard and challenging at times and caused Chris to question his God. A failed relationship brought on many moments of sad reflection, but a new love brought about happiness and laughter. Sue: 'I loved it!!! It made me laugh and it made me cry --and evoked many other emotions as well.' Jan: 'This is a compelling and beautiful love story. It is an easy and fun read filled with insights not only into the climb out of poverty but the coming of age of a young man in the Sixties and beyond.' Rosie: 'I was sitting in the parking lot of the Y in Rehoboth bawling my eyes out.I wanted to drive up to your house and give you the BIGGEST hug in the entire universe! It was an inspirational story.' Peggi: 'I was struck by the author’s honesty and candid story. He ’shows’ the story rather than simply telling it. That is, one can visualize the environment and even feel the tension.' John: 'I put A Moment in Time on my recommended reading list last semester (I teach English at a community college just outside of Washington, D.C.). A couple of Saudi students read it, and decided to do a presentation on same sex marriage for the class. I can make a general observation - students from Asia, Slavic countries, Latin America are very supportive, but students from the Middle East and Africa are astonished that Washington, DC recognizes same sex marriage. I’m not going to be able to change any minds, and that’s not really my intent as a teacher, but your book will help to get the dialogue going, and education is the key to tolerance.'
