Produktbeschreibung

The Way He Should Go 2025 is a heartfelt personal memoir chronicling the life of Frederick H. "Rick" Spikes from the 1940s to retirement in 2012. Spanning more than seven decades, this reflective narrative begins with family roots in Louisiana and Florida, capturing the innocence of childhood, the challenges of adolescence, and the complexities of adulthood. Rick shares vivid memories of joy, loss, and resilience, shaped by the early deaths of loved ones, a 20-year military career, marital and professional struggles, and the emotional weight of carrying his family's legacy alone. His story is deeply personal, yet universally human-navigating grief, faith, and perseverance. Written as a lasting record for future generations, this book preserves a lifetime of lived experience, hard-earned wisdom, and unwavering belief in God's presence through it all. For readers seeking a sincere and unfiltered life story marked by both hardship and hope, this memoir offers an honest window into one man's enduring spirit.
