"From his phenomenal memory, George O. Hallman, Ph.D., describes in fascinating detail what it was like to grow up as a member of the Silent Generation and how a tragic accident on a U.S. Air Force base in Korea led to the loss of his eyesight and the gain of his cherished wife Eileen. With Eileen’s sacrificial support, George became a beloved psychology professor and an extreme marathon runner. George and Eileen raised two sons together and enjoyed a long, happy marriage. Starting with mischievous childhood tales and ending with the profound grief of being separated from the love of his life, George’s beautifully told stories reflect joy, hope, and a constant determination to live each day to the glory of God."
