Songs from the Heart

By: Lola Sawyer

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Lola B. Sawyer praises God for answering prayers in “Isn’t God Good.” It looked to be a dark, cloudy day with rainfall coming. Never mind that plans for the day called for a lunchtime outdoor picnic for the Sunday Class. A plea for sunshine was quickly made and that plea was answered. The class enjoyed a beautiful, sunny day and memories were made. Wasn’t that just like our Heavenly Father – and thus “Isn’t God Good” was written to praise Him for His faithfulness in answering prayer. Each song written has an inspirational message that keeps one praising when answers are so evident. When recited, “A Tribute to Mother” leaves many heartfelt tears, especially on Mother’s Day, where each mother has a special place here or in a beautiful memory. Thus, Songs from the Heart has been carefully selected as the subtitle.

Stories and Poems of a Girl Born in the Valley of the Rio Mira

By: Lola M. Laben

The 1960s don’t seem that long ago to many of us. Given how crowded and closely connected the world of the present is, it’s hard to imagine there were places then that had been settled and cultivated for four hundred years but, as recently as the 1980’s, had no electricity, no plumbing, and very little traffic except for horses, donkeys, and (mostly bare) feet. The valley of the Rio Mira in Ecuador was such a place. Jesuit priests brought slaves - including Lola Laben’s ancestors - to farm sugarcane almost four hundred years ago. Slavery was abolished, but the work continued. Agrarian reform came, Lola’s parents became land owners, and the work continued. Lola was born in a mud house identical to the ones her slave ancestors had been born in for generations. She helped her parents farm a little farther downriver in the same manner that her ancestors had farmed. She explored her tropical paradise and wondered about faraway places and listened to the news of the outside world: the world beyond her valley and the city where the train came to and from three times a week. Fate determined that the outside world would find her, and she now resides in the most thoroughly modern and up-to-date nation on the planet. Guess what? Her childhood was full of wonder, beauty, adventure, and freedom even though survival was less certain. This book recounts the world that Lola was born into and how her heritage prepared her to meet the challenges of her future.

What Makes Dan Bollom So Tall?

A Memoir of Life Experiences and Advice from a Retired CEO

By: Daniel A. Bollom,Lola (Bollom) Schroeder

Dan Bollom believes there are no unimportant jobs. Thus, there are no unimportant people. In this refreshingly honest memoir, Bollom relates how this down-to-earth philosophy shaped his success in life. Throughout his early years in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, Bollom experienced first-hand the difficulties and sacrifices of the Great Depression and World War II, but he also enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. Whether it was the circus coming to town, hunting and fishing near their Spring Brook shanty for the family meal, or participating in the local softball team, Bollom learned valuable lessons about hard work, dedication, and the necessity of laughter. Bollom's persistence and drive to succeed paid off. He graduated from college and landed a job at Wisconsin Public Service as an accountant. With steady determination, he moved up the ranks through the years, married and had a family, and never lost sight of his goals, eventually achieving the rank of president and CEO of the company, a position he retired from in 1997. Candid and humorous, What Makes Dan Bollom So Tall? intimately shows how one man's success was not an end, but a never-ending journey.
