The proceeds from Campaign 17 go directly toward our Mentorship Program and our Suicide Intervention workshops. I saw this film by chance, was flipping through the movie channels one day and the description of it appealed to me. Goldberg is absolutely superb in this powerful film showing what it was like for black people at that time in Montgomery, Alabama. A good lesson to young people, or any person that does not fully know what black people had to put up with. Delivery times may vary, especially during peak periods.
As the frustrated sergeant PJ Collins struggles to solve a genuine case for the first time in his life, he unearths a community's worth of anger and resentments, secrets and regret. Being not fond of infidelity, and/or adultery, it was difficult to root for the main characters. Many moments of wondering if it was necessary to have such detail of the lovemaking. Sometimes, its best to leave it to our imagination. I grew up in Indiana and, after college, moved to Texas for graduate school where I have lived most of my adult life. I currently serve on TLWH team and my Navy Reserve command is with the Force Headquarters Group at Marine Forces Reserve, New Orleans.
About Will North
Mark was later CEO of a computer software company in the Twin Cities for three years. In 2003, Mark was appointed Director of Wisconsin’s Medicaid, BadgerCare, and SeniorCare programs by Governor Doyle. He also served as chair of the Health Insurance Risk Sharing Plan Board of Directors from 2003 to 2006 and chaired the Governor’s Pharmacy Reimbursement Advisory Commission.
In 1993, he and his family moved to New Zealand where he led Aetna International’s team in launching a managed care business. This was the first book by Will North I had purchased. I had listened to other books read by Kate Reading, and had always enjoyed her narrations. There were a number of things about the story I did enjoy. The descriptions of the Welsh countryside, the little pointers about hill hiking and lamb birthing.

My mom, Ron and I live together with our kitten in Venice, FL I graduated in 1977 from East Detroit High in Michigan and went on to college for dental assisting. After a few years, I went back to school to become a Dental Laboratory Technician. I soon opened my own dental lab, making gold and porcelain crowns and running the business. After realizing that jewelry is made the same way that gold crowns were constructed, we began making dolphin tail jewelry which helped make the transition from dental to a jewelry company.
He is unshaven, sweat-soaked...but arrestingly handsome. While reader tastes are far too varied for us to ever call a book a "sure thing" for everyone, literary awards can offer useful signposts... "The Long Walk Home" is a beautiful story that kept me turning the pages.
Great people trying to make a difference.
She's used to unexpected strangers, but few arrive on foot. The man to whom she opens her door is middle-aged, unshaven, sweat-soaked…and arrestingly handsome. What neither of them knows at that moment is that their lives are about to change forever.
I joined the Army in 1997 and my very first deployment was to Albania, which led to the liberation of Kosovo. Most of my first tour ( ) was spent in that part of the world until my ETS date in February 2001. I was still a member of the National Guard when 9/11 occurred so I immediately trained up to go back on active duty. You can imagine how everything about life had changed for me.

My late grandfather served in the US Navy during the peak of World War II. Still to this day I am both horrified and fascinated by his war stories. I found out about The Long Walk Home through Craig, who’s been my friend since high school. In my spare time I enjoy photography, playing guitar, and cooking. I am a Mentor and Volunteer for The Long Walk Home.
I genuinely care about other people and believe in helping when called to help. During Eric’s military career he had the honor to serve in combat zones in Afghanistan and Iraq. He also supported Joint Task Force Operations in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. In retirement Mark has remained professionally active, serving on boards of directors of healthcare and information technology not for profit enterprises.
I always feel like I should finish the book but this one was just unbelievable to me and I made myself stop reading it and wasting my time. Complaints aside, I mostly enjoyed this story of mid-life romance, devotion, and second chances. I ordinarily don't read romance novels because I am a jaded old cynic at heart. Yet, the premise of "The Long Walk Home" intrigued me, especially since the protagonists are near middle age (which promises a mature, experienced, approach to that thing called Love - at least in my mind). At one part, the story took on an 'Inspirational' religious overtone which did not fit with the previous adultery and made me more than a little uncomfortable. There were long, protracted scenes about cooking which served little purpose and the story itself ended at the 80% mark, leaving me feeling a little cheated.
Hating the snowy winters of Utah, Jackie and her husband James decided to make the early retirement move to southwest Florida. However, she is unable to completely let go of the mountains and makes her family go back every summer to go camping. She enjoys fishing for anything but catfish, napping, and reading everything from murder mysteries to cheesy romance books. Jackie has a bachelor’s degree in Social Psychology and was fortunate enough to be selected as a Civilian to attend the Air Command and Staff College, where she received her master’s degree. Her degrees have absolutely nothing to do with her current chosen profession of real estate agent.
My husband and I moved to Florida Keys where we grew the business. I was also a certified reflexologist and energy healer. My husband passed away in 2010 so I gave up my healing business to dive into the jewelry full time. I was impressed with his organization and what he did. Our friendship began while I volunteered for the TLWH events he held. In 2015, I moved here to Venice to be near the beautiful beaches.
