Three is a Company

mom and dad love you
little boy in the picture,
it’s been ten years now
a reminder of a once 4 year old
now you’re an adolescent
healthy, spry and aggressive
sometimes ornery
not listening or caring so much
about things
but you know something,
they still love that little boy
still love
that little boy

Richard & Esther Provencher invite you to read their first of three novels ‘FOOTPRINTS” now available from www.synergebooks.com. “Someone’s
Son” and “Into The Fire” will also be available soon by the same company.

These books were written during the first several years while Richard was recovering from his stroke, which felled him in 1999. He is still recovering.

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
