After being raised from the age of five in a terrible orphanage in Jacksonville. Florida then being sent off to the Florida Industrial School for Boys at Marianna, Florida and then finally to prison at the Lompoc Federal Correctional Institute in Lompoc, California; I look back and see that as a child and young boy I had a good, kind heart, in spite of the horrors I went through. Now as a seventy-seven-year-old man what happened to those wonderful, kind feelings I had for others as a child? These are the stories I have published in several books over the years. These stories tell of the kindness and consideration a young boy had for others who came into his life, while living on the streets of Jacksonville, Florida. It appeared that anything I tried to love or anything that tried to love me was always taken away. That's just the way it was for almost eighteen years.
