In A Year of Thanksgivings, Sallie Hicks shares with her readers seven generations of the Hicks and Read families as she has known them for almost ninety years. In stories that span from her early childhood memories to encounters with life's heartbreaking challenges, Sallie tells how, despite significant visual impairment, she has navigated her life with remarkable optimism, strength, and resilience. In this moving account of how her family came to be and who it is today, Sallie extends an irresistible invitation to all to pull up a chair for a few minutes of conversation with a lady who, before you know it, is sure to become a trusted friend. Mrs. Hicks' attitude is contagious, and readers will likely find that her thanksgivings will inspire new gratitude in themselves.
she could not do many of the things girls her age took for granted, like team
sports and seeing the blackboard in a classroom. Instead, she decided at an
early age to "go down roads that were open to her." Enabled by remarkable
storytelling gifts, for decades she has kept alive the memory of her forebears,
and she has preserved the family stories that she helped create as the wife of
prominent real estate developer and homebuilder George T. Hicks and mother
of five daughters and one son. When asked to describe her life's work, she
says that being a wife and mother to her family was "the point of the whole
thing." Now in this book made from a series of interviews, she passes on a
treasury of family stories and, along with it, her unforgettable personality and
inspiring attitude towards life. Sallie lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with her dog Murphy in a home she shares with her daughter Susan. From the sitting area of her bedroom, she rejoices in the steady flow of new stories about her growing number of great-grandchildren.
