With laugh-out-loud stories, Mary Elizabeth Harris weaves a charming, engaging, comforting account of her mother’s later years shared with Beatrice, caregiver and best friend.Beatrice Jones came as temporary caregiver and stayed ten years as best friend. She brought staunch support, laughter, and grit honed over years of growing up in racially tense Texas. Her “Keep a Steppin’” attitude despite adversity helped Mary Harris and her mother face the challenges, wisdom, and joy of aging. With laugh-out-loud stories about red convertible rides, a pink patent leather purse, a million safety pins, and a blue chair, Mary weaves a charming, engaging, comforting account of her mother’s later years shared with Beatrice.
