Diamond Girl: The Life & Legacy of Janet Richards

The "husband" of 54 years, Rodney, gives us an intimate, private view of Janet's remarkable yet normal and astonishing life. Biased, speechless, amazed, Rod shows why he's proud of her, even awestruck. He's the bad example she used in her classroom to make a point to her students about what not to say or do. He admits he's the Doo Doo Head she loved. This book was written to remind us of Janet's indefatigable, excitable, alive, and sparkling spirit. She was magnetic; her smiles were contagious. Her creativity was both inventive and spontaneous, and she was always willing to lend a hand. Her manner, interesting. Her advice and guidance, spot on. Her practical solutions to any problem, 100% effective. Her insight and thoughtfulness, never-failing. Rod shares not only her life and who she was, but how she immediately affected others so positively. You will absolutely enjoy and admire a unique life described so real and without any pretense or embellishment whatsoever.
