Another Writer in Our Midst


Bob provided the attached notice for a book signing by his wife, Patty. She wrote the book Behind the Smile. The signing will be on Saturday, January 7th from 1-3 PM at Bank Square Books in Mystic.

Biography (from Amazon.com)

Writing Behind The Smile was a final tribute to my son whom I lost to the disease of addiction. I never thought I'd be writing a book like this. However, it has been a catharsis for my grief.

Born in Boston, Ma. on April 16, 1950, I am a mother of 3 and a grandmother of 3. I spent most of my adult life teaching music both in schools and giving private piano lessons. I have been involved with many vocal groups and served as cantor for my church.

Now retired, I began writing by keeping journals following the death of my son. Having published one book, I am in the process of writing another, dealing with grieving the loss of a loved one.
