Marian Lye's home is in Weymouth, England. She and her husband raised three boys, and she worked in administration for a government department for many years. Her love of history led her to write Weymouth at War account of World War 2 on the south coast of England. The book, now in its second edition, features the dramatic build up to D-Day in June 1942, when thousands of American servicemen set sail from the twin ports of Weymouth and Portland, bound for "Omaha Beach" in Normandy. In this millennium, the arrivals of three lively grandkids in California have been magical milestones. Patty McGuigan is the proud grandmother of four gorgeous grandchildren. She is also a successful commercial real estate agent, a past high school English teacher, and active in her Bay Area community. Patty has created numerous books of her artwork and travel memories. Her creativity has been her defining factor throughout her life, and indeed she does believe in time travel. Heaven help the world with Patty's energy and ideas!
