Marching On Singing Ever — Ruth Williams

Ruth Williams tells the story of a life lived well. Now retired and shifted into life on “the other side of the mountain,” she shares the elements of her life that brought her reward, friendship, professional contribution, and adventure as psychotherapist, innkeeper, and friend. Always willing to see the humor and grace in a situation, she entertains with stories as varied as “Little Camp Misery,” with its stifling Texas heat and incredible sequence of events, and her unsuspecting childhood teas with the town's leading Madam. Through it all, the value of friendships in her personal life, the establishment of the Hearthstone Inn, and the privileged ability to professionally assist people seeking help are her most cherished memories. “Life has been full of unexpected grace,” she writes, “and I never saw it coming.”
