Grandma Guilt Wrote a Book

published by Warner Press 1973

"June" was a barmaid. While at work she met a man who opened up a world of love and goodness for her and her small daughter. But immediately following their engagement, he died of a heart attack. In despair she attempted suicide, but even that was a failure. Her doctor gave her a choice--commitment to a mental institution or to the Women's Christian Mission. She chose the latter.

THE WAY BACK is the true story of one woman's struggle to find a reason for living. It tells how God worked through various people--Christians who loved her and outcasts who needed her--to prepare her for a life of Christian service as superintendent of the very mission to which she came.
