The Good Guy List

By Russ Vanderboom

Alone and in shock after witnessing the drowning of her husband just days prior to giving birth to her twin sons, Elle Joyce feels the crushing fear of isolation, responsibility, and the uncertainty of the confines limiting her life on her deceased husband's dairy farm. With little reserve and less optimistic vision, she starts from scratch to assemble family support that builds on close kin relatives and extended family members from her community and local rural environment. Caught in the emotional turbine of single parent motherhood, Elle copes with frailty while she offers her sons, David and Patrick, as complete a family structure as she can muster. The boys develop their innate gifts as they search for meaning to opportunitiesin the unstructured life in a fatherless family. Elle and her sons learn to depend on the well intended involvement of good people who extend the Joyce family beyond the nucleus of Elle and her two sons. Elle comes to trust the Good Guys who bless her vibrant family.
