"This is a simple story of the celebration of the life, the
peaceful promise, and the lasting legacy of my dear grandmother
Mary Jane, who taught without words that you can't put reins on a
wandering spirit."
"An ambitious first novel as rich in retrospection as it is in
introspection] that serves as both a how-to guide for all those
struggling to come to terms with their own shortcomings, and an
arduous journey down the most difficult path of all: the path to
one's self. This heartfelt personal narrative is a catalyst for
change and an instrument of peace; but above all, it reminds us
that love is boundless, even in the face of death." -Jeremy Weimer,
writer, poet, author of "Plea"
"Remembering Mary Jane represents a wonderful tribute to God,
families, and life. While the author tells the reader that she is
not writing the great American novel, she takes the reader through
a series of memories that will make one laugh and cry. These
memories include life lessons for learning empathy in the purest
sense. From Thanksmas to a funeral, the experiences of this family
show love, care, compassion, and God's presence. A book you will be
glad you read " -Dr. Eugenia Badger, Indiana University, author of
"Metaphors, Beliefs, and Sayings About the Day of the Dead: A
Cross-Cultural Comparison"
