Betty Brown

Movin' On and Beyond Betty Brown

Movin' On and Beyond is an autobiography portraying an American girl born on the prairie in the middle of the United States to hardworking, untutored, steadfast parents and immigrant grandparents. It tells of her experiences growing up, marriage, raising a family, employment, divorce, remarriage, travels and sickness.


Through her determination, integrity and courage, she became a strong-willed, independent thinker. Challenges only made her stronger, setbacks made her determined. Her strength comes from her father, personal endurance from her mother.


This book is intended for family reading to educate young & old. Make your journey through life a courageous one, keeping focused. Honor events of those that came before us and those who come after us. I have heard it said, the road to success is not straight. There is a curve called failure, a loop called confusion, speed bumps called faith and a driver called Jesus who leads you to a place called success.



From the words of the hymn, "I Am Forever Who I Am"



Some days seem long, though life is brief,


Death is waiting like a thief.


Vision fades, dreams go dry,


We will on unseen things rely.


Stories take up but a page,


Yours goes on from age to age.
