Opis

The Steeple Scroll is a title of a column that Mary Dobbs has written weekly for the past 20 years, as a Snow Bird in retirement in Naples, FL. The book is a collection of Mary's favorite columns. The columns are about growing up on a bright leaf tobacco farm in Eastern North Carolina during the Great Depression, and experiencing the pain of a segregated society, although her parents were not segregationists, her 63 loving years of marriage beginning as a child bride, college life as an adult student. And this lead to many first for Mary such as first woman elected to college board of her local community college, and president of Illinois Community College Trustees Association. Other topics Mary wrote about are death of loved ones including loss of a child, natures beauty and fury, and life's everyday challenges from the very humors to the heart rendering emotions.
