Our story
Robert and I were married in October 2005. Back then we both worked full-time jobs, me at a loan company and Robert at a local bank, and neither one was going anywhere. We wanted to raise our family and actually be there for it, so we walked away and started selling at flea markets and festivals.
Those years were hot, cold, wet and wonderful. We set up before daylight and packed up after dark, but we made a living and our three kids grew up right there with us. Later we swapped some flea markets for weekend festivals so we could be in Church on Sunday.
The books
Robert does the writing. I do the reading, and the re-reading, and the "are you sure about this sentence?" I've proofread every article and book he's written, from his first newspaper columns to his newest large-print books. That's why every cover says "with encouragement from Summer S. Lemoine."
We also created a journal together, Reflections of the Past, Visions of the Future: A Time to Remember, with room to look back on where you've been and write down where you're going.
Today
Robert and I own and run a family of businesses from Farmerville, Louisiana: Backroads WiFi, Forever And Always Boutique, The Lemoine Agency, ViSoR, The MELTDOWN shaved ice and Forever And Always Web Services. It's a lot of hats, but we wear them together, and we put the Lord first in all of it.
