Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. #1 The legend of my family is the marriage of my parents, Donald Jacobs and Bonny Jean Godfrey, two young star-crossed lovers, up against the world. But there is an adversary to this legend: my grandmother Ma Godfrey, who wanted my parents to divorce. #2 My parents had a very strong pact of loyalty with each other, and they taught me and my sisters to do the same. They always had each other's backs, and they taught us to do the same. #3 I loved being at my grandparents' house with my father. It was there that I learned to appreciate pasta, homemade tomato sauce, and good Italian bread. #4 I loved going to my parents' house for Sunday dinners. I would sit on my father's lap and drive the car while he drove the pedals. I felt immensely proud of my father, so handsome in his dark suit, sometimes wearing a Stetson hat.
