Letters to Tim is a series of poignant letters sent over a ten-month period from a grandfather to his young twenty-year-old grandson who was struggling with very serious health issues in his life. The grandfather hoped these letters would provide a stimulus to Tim as well as provide interesting and sometimes humorous childhood stories about the grandfather’s own experiences growing up in a very unique time and in a very unique place during the 1930s, ’40s, and ’50s. The letters depict numerous recollections the grandfather had during the first eighteen years of his life while growing up in a large, loving family, struggling with emotional issues related to the depression era, the war years, and the everyday challenges of surviving on a small rural farm. Faced with weather-related challenges, social problems, and economic hardships, this family proved able to meet these challenges head on while still enjoying life. During these hard and difficult times, love of family and deeply instilled family values provided the glue which held this family close together during both good and difficult times.
