DON – FORMER VIETNAM VETERAN – Part Three
Continuing a 7-part special by Richard F. Kontz on a Vietnam Vet he met while running the Bread of Life Christian Bookstore in 2015 through mid-2011.
Don and I went into a restaurant called My Sister’s place and sat down at a table. So as the server came and gave us a menu and took our drink order we sat there looking at the menus, and Don said “boy, Rich, it’s been a long time since I have had a meal in a sit-down restaurant – I don’t even know what to order – too many choices”.

‘We Read, We Talk’ book club meets with Anne Hillerman
Area authors also join in at library’s special event
What do you see when you read? When James Joyce invites us to Dublin, when Charles Dickens sets us down in London, we come to know those cities specifically through their filters.

These words were read by Octavia Fellin Library Director Tammie Moe as she introduced the “In Conversation with Local Authors” at the Octavia Fellin Public Library July 7.
