Kermit Washington Story

Who would have imagined meeting a stranger would lead to the writing of this book. Walking the scenic hills in Palos Verdes Estates, California, as a form of daily exercise, Kermit met and began sharing numerous stories about his life. As this daily routine developed into a mutual friendship the idea of writing a book was introduced. Although not the first time this idea was introduced, the timing was right and the idea took root and the adventure began. Noted for his gift of story-telling the task at hand was to capture details that would engage the reader after reading the first lines in the text to continue reading until the last page of the manuscript. We hope these words inspire, motivate, invoke emotions, encourage laughter, share challenges in overcoming obstacles, and explain details of incidents left in doubt.
