LEAH STORY'S STORIES
A TRIBUTE TO MY MOTHER AND HER WRITINGS

I have been sorting through the voluminous writings my mother left scattered in many boxes and folders. Many of them are about her dreams of becoming a story writer.  Sadly, only one of her stories was accepted for publication, but never appeared in print. However, as I have sorted through the sometimes mixed writings, I have found gems of personal accounts and observations. So I will start with some of these. Eventually I hope to add some of her fictional stories because I know that would please her. With tongue in cheek, I affectionately call all of this, LEAH STORY'S STORIES. Please come back occasionally to see what I've added.

Because of the random nature of this collection the entries will not be organized chronologically or topically. Also, the entries are mostly photo copies of the original documents and some may be a little difficult to read.
