A Great Force for Good

Her name was Rowena Kramer.  She was a white woman with a heart for everyone.  Willis Jefferson had lived with her over ten years after she rescued him from a storm, and not just one involving the weather.  Did she have an impact on his life?  Check out the following “QuotaBill” from dad’s book, “Bluebell” and see what you think.


“Anyone privy to the details of Willis Jefferson’s childhood would have seen Rowena Kramer as a greater force in his life than he might ever know.  Not only had she taught him about life, and instilled in him a love of it, she had implanted the need to share that love with all of God’s creatures.”


Her impact went beyond teaching him to clean up his room or play nicely with the neighbor kids.  It went to the soul of his being, as evidenced by this excerpt from “Bluebell”.

Has someone had a significant impact in your life?  I’d love to hear about it and you never know, maybe your comment will be just what someone else needs to be that ‘helpful’ person in a life.
