Aging with Grace: the Formative Years Joanne F. Lyons

Grace is a Baby Boomer and is aging. We all do. From birth and before, environment and genetics influence us. This explains why we don?t age the same. But, why do some of us handle the process differently? Grace Styls Behr is aging but is she aging with grace and style? To fully understand Grace, we step into ?The World according to Grace.? Aging With Grace: The Formative Years takes you back to post-WWII America, starting Grace's story with her genetic and biological factors: her parents, Zachary Styls and Liz Sparrow. The story is sad and at other times humorous. Grace?s childish thoughts are creatively unique and sometimes pathetically plain. Yet, you will be moved by a nostalgic story of this normal baby boomer as you hearken back to another time in America. The time of early television; true customer service; door to door salesmen; home deliveries and doctor calls. The new highway system brings increased mobility on land and the new consumers bring upper mobility and a hope for a better world.
