Book Overview

The memoir of the Reverend Eugene R. "Woody" Widrick, Minister Emeritus of the First Religious Society in Carlisle, Massachusetts, reflects on his 87 years of life, from his early childhood in a large Mennonite family in upstate New York to the nine years he spent hospitalized for tuberculosis to his high school, college and graduate school years and on to the journey that brought him his life's work as a Unitarian Universalist minister, in communities as diverse as a Connecticut mill town; New Hampshire's lakes region; Cape Town, South Africa; the Berkshires; and finally the small New England town of Carlisle, Massachusetts, where he and his wife Trudi put down roots, raised a family, and immersed themselves in a vibrant church community.
