It's tagged as a mystery, but readers are saying there's more to the story than the average whodonit. <br />One reader said she wants the following quote on her tombstone.<br />"When I was broken, I found friends who helped me mend. When I was lost, I found friends who helped me find my way. When I was without purpose in life, I found friends who gave me one."bo parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09504218582844222769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35940445.post-16607856612607632942011-10-23T23:49:09.635-05:002011-10-23T23:49:09.635-05:00WHIRLPOOL, Book #1 in my Julesburg Mysteries, is a...WHIRLPOOL, Book #1 in my Julesburg Mysteries, is available for 99 cents only until Nov.1st.
