LATEST REPORTS from Mariam Cheshire


SPREAD  THE  WORD
Mrs. A, retired Counselor, reported: 
I was afraid “Worries Won’t Happen – Fred’s Story” would be emotional reading but instead it’s a story we all know.  Childhood and school and first love! The book is great. I believe all should tell friends.
                                                                        ***********************
Anyone else with a picture to send me?  It would make my day!

REPORT ON FRED’S SCHOLARSHIP
Glendale Community College advises that $17,586.67 has now been donated to the Dr. Fred Cheshire Memorial Scholarship Fund.  Isn’t that fantastic!  One family, with adult children, gave their Christmas presents to Fred’s Scholarship Fund instead of each other.  Twenty-two cents were the last two figures on a couple of gifts, thus honoring Fred’s birthday.  You all are giving me goosebumps!
Scholarships for $250 each will be awarded shortly.  In my next letter I should have more details about how we are giving students a helping hand. 
Can’t you see Fred shouting Hooray!



REPORT ON “THERE’S NOTHING I CAN’T DO”
The first part of the book is the tough part.  I’m going back through notes written at the time, 1977-early 1978, back when I would scribble something late at night or save a scrap of paper about a person or meeting.  It will get easier when the part is reached about Fred beginning his new life. 
Any friend who knew Fred in a wheelchair, would you write me at mimar102@cox.net or call me at 602-340-8048?  If you’ll give me some help, then I’ll shout Hooray!

“I GOT IT”

 And then the follow-up from Mrs. D.
“Having raised boys, my husband
and I can understand the worry, 
the amusement, the love that this 
book contained. 
We enjoyed it immensely."                       














Mr. B. reported, “A cup of coffee and a good book make my day.  . . . .
"Fred's biography tells of the life of a good and honest man.  Through this book he is still touching our lives"  







    
     
     Miss U said, “With so 
     much of  Fred’s own 
     words from his journals, 
     this turns into an 
     autobiography in 
     places. 
     A wonderful job of 
     reporting.”




Each book brings a $3.72 royalty.  An e-book in Kindle adds 75 cents. 
All royalties go to the Fred Cheshire Scholarship Fund at Glendale Community College.

Fred’s birthday is December 22nd.
If you are planning a tax-deduction birthday present, 
would you end the amount in twenty-two cents?  
$12.22   or   $25.22   or   $112.22.
You are making the statement that you cared for Fred.

I’m holding my breath to get it in the top #100 in this category. 

Here’s how you can help:

1.  Spreading the word by SHARING on facebook.  (Use -- IF YOUR LIFE TOUCHED FRED’S -- post)

2. Writing a REVIEW on Amazon about how you liked the book.  (Well, I hope you liked it.)

In 1977, forty-one years ago, Fred’s students and friends were helping him get a wheelchair van so he could drive. 

Today Fred’s students and friends are helping him continue with his joy of teaching with all Royalties going to the Endowed Scholarship at Glendale Community College.    
 
My grateful thanks to all of you who have started the help we need.

  Hugs  and  blessings, Mariam
