Jerry Russell Paregien had a good life, in fact, a really good life. He and I, as cousins in Ventura County, Calif., grew up among immigrants from Oklahoma. That would include his father, Marvin and his wife Wanda, and my father Harold and my mother Evelyn, who all grew up as children of dirt poor sharecroppers who lived lives of desperation due to the worn-out, poor soil. By 1942, they and most of their kin had moved to California for steady checks and electricity. They were still poor, by their neighbors’ standards, but were honest and happy folks. That was the situation when Jerry was ...

This is the 2022 Yearbook of the Americana.Wiki Journal. Stan Paregien is the Editor of the monthly Americana.Wiki Journal and of this 2022 Yearbook which contains all 7 issues of Volume 1. Our United States is in fact a great tossed salad of different and sometimes conflicting races, sexual preferences, social standings, and levels of economic opportunities. We have a lot to talk about and in our Journal we are working with a base commitment to inclusiveness, transparency, and truthfulness. None of that will advance far unless our writers . . . and our readers . . . communicate with old-...

Don and Judy Betts are Florida treasures. She was born in Miami and he was born and reared on Longboat Key (parallels the shores of Bradenton down to Sarasota). Each has made significant contributions to their community and their church. She worked in a bank in Sarasota, then - with kids at home - she became a school bus driver, and then a mortgage loan officer. She also became an advocate for abused children, working with the courts, lawyers and parents. He organized a "Night Out" program where parents could bring their children to a church building and leave them for 2 or 3 hours to have ...

This is a collection of our memories and photos from our vacation in Lincoln County, New Mexico during June 1-6 of 2022. Peggy and I were joined by our son and his wife, Becky & Stan Paregien, JR (Lt. Col. USAF, retired). It shows the breath-taking beauty of the mountains and forests.

FROM THE FOREWORD BY MILLIE STEVENTON My Uncle Stan was a grumpy man when he began to write to me from Spain and he can’t be said to have mellowed much with age. This book contains only his letters to me, as his old-school habit of always referring to my missives removes the need to include my supportive, and sometimes censorious, replies which possess little of the descriptive power and mostly unintentional humour of his own copious correspondence. In a way I suppose that in the last few years I have been his only constant and empathic contact with the rest of humanity and this first ...

Lumea în care trăim îi susține din ce în ce mai mult pe cei care pun pe picioare și conduc o afacere, asumându-și riscuri financiare considerabile. Ei se numesc antreprenori. Dacă ai între 20 și 40 de ani, probabil ești pe cale să-ți faci debutul în antreprenoriat, iar dacă ai peste 40 de ani, poate că ți-ai deschis deja propriul business. Indiferent de situația și de categoria în care te încadrezi, succesul antreprenorial este condiționat de respectarea și aplicarea consecventă a câtorva principii fundamentale.
