These are the stories of so many of the residents in "The Home. "Some do not have family who can care for them and sadly, some families who do not want to be bothered. Don't judge them until you have walked in their shoes It is difficult to care for older folks that do not remember who they are and ask the same questions endlessly. Some must be watched constantly because they will wander off and cannot find their way home. As you read the stories, try to understand that these lovely people have had lives and love children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Some have been successful in business, and some have had happy lives while others have suffered much heartbreak. Some survived the great depression of the 1930s and some survived fighting in various wars around the world. Some have had beautiful, wonderful marriages and some have had unhappiness in their relationships. These stories are about the survivors of this life, while a few are just waiting for the Lord to call them Home. Each story is unique.

Before horse-whispering was popular an ole' time cowboy, William A. Cummins, was changing lives with secrets he learned by talkin' to horses. Over 100 photos mirror the sensibility of this soft-spoken feed-bucket philosopher and author of "KING and the COWBOY." The book is deeply moving, yet never self-pitying in telling Bill's hard-knocks-but-dream-inspired story. It would have been tempting given the broad strokes of Bill's life: A childhood marked by early stardom -- he became a teenage singing cowboy on radio -- he taught a golden palomino stallion to talk and pray on stage and learned trick-roping -- they headlined as "Smilin' Bill and his Wonder Horse King" -- the partial loss of his right hand at age nine -- the early death of his mother when he was 15 -- the heart warming solace he found in horses -- and a highly successful engineering career. Instead the book allows the facts, simply told, to carry the weight. The idea for the book came when Bill was again encouraged to perform rope tricks during retirement. With wisdom coming straight from the horse's mouth he now spins cowboy yarns and hi-tech stories to the young at heart.
