Mr. Turrill was my high school teacher. He was amazing so I thought I'd buy his books. This is my favorite, I believe it's pretty close to the story of his life with the names changed, but it is an amazing love story that everyone should read.

This book is an awesome read, and it's from a local author. He's a teacher in Belding!!

I did not care for this book and really struggled to get through it. The son & Psychologist decided the fathers life should be written. It was in no chronological order which kept me confused.
