A daily walk with... ME |
A great man in our WDC Family has joined the distinguished ranks of The White Case Memorial. Oldwarrior was one of the first members to reach out to me when I was a newbie years ago. His kindness and encouraging advice gave me the confidence I have now as a writer and a reviewer. It is apparent from reading his impressive profile and biography that he wasted no time living a full life dedicated to the service of others. Gene's stories, published novels, and poetry richly reveal his talent as a writer. By some strange coincidence, I was just finishing a rather lengthy review of this item in his portfolio
when I saw the message from his son that he had passed away. There are only three chapters posted in Oldwarrior's portfolio of this Old West Story. It's sad to know Gene's work will never be finished. I think it would have been a successful novel. Here is a link to his biography through Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Eugene-Ladnier/e/B004581TT4 An exerpt from that biography: His early life taught him that possessions are not as important as ideas, that dreams can come true, and that home is truly where the heart is. |
