MARSHA'S POETIC EXPRESSIONS of JUNE'S and STAN'S LOVE and LIFE and ALZHEIMER'S

Book excerpt: Stan first met Marsha several years ago when Stan published a special tribute to the caregivers around the world. Marsha read Stan's tribute and also his reference to caregiving being God's hands here on earth. Marsha, who lives in Texas and was once a schoolteacher there and a lady with great poetic abilities, had a father who came down with Alzheimer's. Stan tried to assist Marsha with advice in the care of her father. Marsha, early on in their friendship, wrote two poems relating to caregiving and her father's Alzheimer's: "In Heaven, He Remembers" and "His Hands." Being the prolific and excellent poet/poem writer that Marsha was, Stan set up a page on June's Alzheimer's website to collect and publish Marsha's many poems. It is these many poems that now make up this book.
