Bob Patton grew up with little hope or opportunity, living in near poverty. With dreams, determination and faith, he became successful in many areas of life. His progression from earning first a high school diploma led to obtaining a doctoral degree. A job in a Detroit steel mill led the way to becoming a university professor. Motivation and a strong work ethic forged every step along his life path.
This memoir explores life lived over a sixty-year period and various jobs including farm worker, educator, politician and public servant. His journey led him through divorces, life as a single parent, political defeat, and job loss.
On his many life paths, Bob took responsibility for his personal welfare, developing and living a strong moral code which guided him through life's adventures. Each day brought new reasons to seek hope while holding onto the faith which first nurtured him as a young man. His story is relatable to anyone who has ever experienced discouragement and discovered renewed hope as a result.
