For so many years, I have wanted to sing. Mother was in her chrch choir after auditioning for a recording company. It was one of those companies who promised that if she sent them $200 they would cut a record. All she had to do was send them a vocal recording of a song she wrote - in a key suitable for her and they would assign a musician to accompany the lyrics.
Mother realized her dream and when the recording arrived. She played the cassette until it nearly wore out. But, she never gave up on her dream of singing - and eventually traded her Nashville dream for her local church. She received great delight in pleasing God!
I followed my dream of singing in our church choir but first had to audition. It went well, I was selected and scheduled to perform a Randy Travis song "Through The Fire". I never sang before and when the time approached for me to sing in front of 300 people, God led me to heights I could have never imagined.
It has been 7 years and I now perform for our Baptist Church in Bonita Springs, Florida and have recorded 7 selections - mostly Randy Travis and believe me, the applause is wonderful. But, performing for God is the ultimate reward. NEVER give up on your dream.
A hidden talent also become apparent when Bob was selected to sing John Travolta's Summer Nights from the smash hit "Grease". He is also a member of The First Baptist Church of Bonita Springs, FL where he has been actively involved in the choir for the past 6 years - and his tenor voice has allowed him to produce over a half dozen Christian songs by Randy Travis
Following an impressive career with U.S. Airways, Bob retired in 2000 and has devoted much of his time to producing ORPHANS OF THE MOURNING, his first novel about a soldier in Vietnam who eventually becomes the first Vietnam veteran President of The United States. This book is currently available in the e-book format from Barnes & Noble.
Bob was thrust into the nationwide scene in 1983 with his nationally acclaimed Vietnam poster poem The Wall, a statement about the emotional pain and anger of Vietnam - frrlings and sentiments he was not permitted to express while in uniform, but once discharged, a trip to The Wall evoked his deep personal feelings.
The Wall was displayed in The White House in 1983 and as a result received instant success when President Ronald Reagan personally honored Bob for his contribution to all Vietnam Veterans. To date, tens of thousands of copies have been sold.
Bob has also recently finished his second novel, MURDER IN OGUNQUIT a mystery which takes place in the small New England coastal town of Ogunquit, Maine known as "A Beautiful Place By The Sea".
In addition to his full length novels, Bob is offering a series of his "folksy" down to earth short stories at no charge for your enjoyment here on Smashwords, and it is the author's desire that you
