Naturally, A Love Story

This captivating story, written by the eldest daughter, begins with the love of a young couple first encountering each other after the boys came home from World War II. The American economy boomed, the interstate road system boomed, and the newly minted French family boomed.
Dad, a brilliant electrical engineer, trudged daily to the train for his round-trip commute to his office in downtown Chicago, building electrical power plants, while Mom, an extraordinary domestic engineer, stayed home, cooking three square meals a day, vacuuming, and dusting. Together, they raised eleven children. At first glance, they embodied the typical 1950s suburban couple. How did they manage the size of their family? Was it love, luck, and laughter? Was it their faith in God? Was it a challenge, complete chaos, and unending chores?
Defying all logic, they raised their children through elementary school, high school, and college, who then married and blessed them with twenty-six grandchildren. From their meeting on that fateful Sunday night, while dancing at the St. Sabina’s social, growing their family, still dancing, and gazing at each other with love, they were together until the day he died.
The story ends with her inevitable loss as he reached the end of his life and traces the legacy of an amazing husband and wife.
