Out of Our Lives

Originally from 11 countries and many different states, the 26 contributors to this book have written articles about their pasts which span the wide range of human emotion. Some deal with tragedy and pain, others with the fantasy of remembrance, unusual amusing incidents from childhood, or later professional life around the globe.

Although they are now all living in the Saratoga Retirement Community, the writers come from the professional worlds of physics, meteorology, business and home management, chemistry, psychology, DMV instruction, weaving, paleontology, world travel, art therapy, and medicine. Incidents from each life are presented in idiosyncratic style.
