Love Life

In 1921, Thomas Nelson O’Malley and Blanche Marie Witherspoon were born on the same day, in the same town and in the same hospital. For the next eighty years they were inseparable as they experienced the Twentieth century’s tragedies and triumphs through the lens of a shared love that permeated every aspect of their lives. “Love Life” allows the reader to experience these extraordinary lives from the perspective of Tommy and Blanche, as well as their children, grandchildren and even their dog. It is, at times, funny, sad, joyous and tragic, as are all our lives, while at the same time introspective and romantic. For those old enough to remember much of their shared history, this book will be a delightful trip down memory lane; for those too young to know these tumultuous years, it will be a history lesson and a chance to “get to know” your own mother, father, grandmother or grandfather in the light of the American history in which they traversed.
