In addition to her grandparents, the household includes Franky, their cook / housekeeper / laundress, whose husband Professor, principal of the K-12 Negro school, drives Franky to work and spends time at the kitchen table with Dada, discussing world events, and Rufus, the gardener / handyman / chauffeur. Frequent visitors are Nanny, Granny's crippled younger sister, and her husband, Harry, who drive into town from their small farm in an old Pierce Arrow which only Nanny can drive and only in second gear, and Uncle, Granny's younger brother, who lives alone near the railroad tracks with his two hunting dogs. Among the colorful townsfolk are Dolly (wife of Jolly), who has no children but has a wondrous doll collection for all the town's children to enjoy; Scrap, the trash man, who drives a mule-drawn cart to pick up castoffs which he turns into treasures; Miss Annie, the widow of a sea captain, who wears trousers, smokes an occasional cigar,and drives a bright yellow roadster; and Woodrow, confused but harmless, who thinks he is the President of the United States. But through all the delights of a carefree, almost magical summer, is woven the shadow of eight-year-old Billy Jack, the mostly unsupervised son of a mother long gone and a father who works in the oil fields. Billy Jack has told Bettina that Mrs. Crone, a strange neighbor who dresses all in black, is a witch. Bettina is afraid of Mrs. Crone, as well as of the frowning life-size angel with its sword unsheathed, which Mrs. Crone erected at the entrance of Townview Cemetery.
The young woman watched me like a cat watches a rat he is going to catch for his dinner. As I walked up the stairs to let myself in the building she jumped in front of me. She pressed her face close to my ear. I could feel and smell her hot stinking breath as she whispered menacingly into my ear, Open this goddamned door quick bitch. You better not scream or I will run this knife right through your side. I fumbled in my purse for my key. I tried to keep as still as possible because I could feel the knife pricking my skin every time I moved. I finally found the key and my hand was trembling so badly that I could barely turn the lock. You better hurry up bitch if you dont want to die. Once I got the door opened the woman pushed me to the floor. She went straight to the cabinets and rambled through the vaccine bottles and other medicines that had been set aside for the research project. You better not try anything. she yelled, while she rambled through the cabinets, She cursed and threw bottles on the floor as she pillaged through every cabinet in the office. She finally found what she was looking for. She headed towards the door, turned back, came to where I was lying on the floor, leaned close to me and yelled in my face, You better not call the sheriff bitch, or I will come back, find you, and kill your fuckin ass.

When the Judds recorded “Grandpa, Tell Me ‘Bout the Good Ole Days”, our whole family began singing the title around the glowing pasture campfires, and my late cattleman husband would do just that, telling about the colorful Luckey family history, and his personal hunting, fishing and cowboy stories. Sometimes, it was, “Grandmaw, tell us another one!” when I would once again share the adventures and miracles of my lifetime, the police stories and hunting tales, my true confessions and faith in Jesus and how He’d brought me through every low valley to the joyful, victorious mountain tops! I can still see, just like it was yesterday, the glistening of the tears on their cheeks by the firelight; but much more often, it was their hysterical laughter heard echoing through the woods on smoky nightime breezes....the happiest of times, and the strongest family love we’d ever know.
God spared my family of eight members many times. There were two tornadoes, a flood, a power takeoff shaft, two cases of internal bleeding, two fires, a rare disease, terminal cancer, car accidents, and many things that drove me to my knees. God allowed all these trials to bring brokenness that I might become a Christian. I wanted change that I might walk in Gods ways. God really spoke through his Word. He allowed many trials to change me. God took me through so much scripture. There is great power in his Word. He will show you through his Word what he wants to change. He wants obedience. He has taken me through many trials until I went around Jericho without a word. You cant grumble or complain. If you complain, youre telling God he cant do it. I love to tell the story of what God does for me. I love to walk with him. He wants us to be an encourager to people and to show forth his love. Share the Word with them. There are hurting people everywhere.
Louisiana Coffeewith lots of cream is Dr. Betty Reynolds fifth book to be published. Not surprisingly, this book is not about coffee, nor is it about cream. Instead, it is a delightful medley of intriguing tales covering four generations of a New Orleans Creole family. Since Creole usually denotes a mixing of bloods, the color of their skin can be as varied as the color of ones coffee ranging from dark, dark chocolate to the lightest of rich cream. This fictional memoir appropriately starts a hundred years ago in New Orleansthe home of the family matriarch, Bertha Mayberry. Berthas story is a mysterious one that she preferred to be kept locked among other family secrets. She was particularly sensitive about having to reveal her misfortune of being trapped in a bordello when she first arrived in New Orleans as a young girl. Her romantic rescue ended in tragedy, but she did transcend in the end and married a popular Black jazz musician named William Sweetwater Lewis. Together they gained respectability by working hard and providing their five daughters with a good education, a passion for music, and a young life filled with parties and gala events in a city that was known for them. Berthas children as well as her childrens children follow their own paths in choosing where and how they will live out their lives. Their accounts of triumphs and mishaps take you on a fascinating journey to experience the mysteries of black magic in the Louisiana swamps, a numbers racket in Detroit and the casinos in Las Vegas when the mob was in control. Some leave the safety of their ancestral home on Bourbon Street to carve out new lives in other far-away places such as the Jersey Shores, Philadelphia, or New York. Whatever their destination, each member of the Lewis clan brings to the saga an interesting storyline that shares his/her unique motivations, desires and actions that sometimes lead to less than favorable consequences. Louisiana Coffeeis meant to inform, rather than to alarm. It is a tell-all fiction that might open some eyes as what goes on in a different world on the other side of the cultural divide.

If used by those left behind after the Rapture of the Church, "The Curse of The Image" Handbook, will take the reader step by step through the events described in the Bible. It will reveal the plan that Satan has, to use the Image people have come to know as Christ, and how Satans plan will be implemented before the second coming of Christ. Scriptures are provided in order that one can check for validity. Not a subject widely discussed, the practice of the veneration of carved statues and pictures unwinds like a scarlet thread down through the ages of church history. Some Christians arent aware the practice is Idolatry. The writer gives examples with Scripture backup, to aquaint the reader with the wide-spread practice and how important it will be to know as much as we can about the Mark of The Beast. If you have children or other loved ones who are not saved, get them a copy of this book. It may be the only hope they will have if they are left behind. There are years of prayer concerning this book. The writer knows this may be controversial. Her oldest son said of the writing, "Mom if you publish this book, the church world will crucify you." That may figuratively come to pass. However, the writer feels its necessary to bring this revelation to the attention of the public. Saint or Sinner this is the book for you, along with your Bible. The writer strongly encourages all who read the book to have a Bible at their side because, the Holy Bible is the last authority by which all are to be judged. The writer prays that the reader will read and research the subject, for there is much more to be brought to the attention of the masses concerning the Rapture of the church and the second coming of the Lord. In all this she has been diligent to pray and study for some twenty years on this subject. If one soul is snached from the greedy hands of Satan, the writer feels she will have been successful in this endeavor. THIS IS NOT A WORK OF FICTION:
