Born and raised in the southern desert town in California, raise with a farm life, most of my childhood days were spent fishing or hunting with my father and mother, back when life was carefree. I wrote Buck & the Boy for my father six years ago. His name was Gilbert, but he went by Buck. In the story I made my father this old dog. He passed this year in February of 2022, so I took the book and had it edited and published to honor my Parents.
