I am responding to the article"Seniors on the move" My goal was to retire before 55.I was quite fortunate to have done that and retired at 54.Having the time and a reasonable amount of savings to travel, my wife and I began traveling in our great country visiting friends of long ago,as we were preparing for our 40th class reunion. One friend who knew me well nearly 40 years ago,once hearing the rest of my story,nearly forced me into writing my memoir.Once written and I sent copies out for reviews,it is funny how The LA Times picked up on it and basically was intrigued on how many seniors today are writing a memoir at this time of their lives.The review was one of many who found the book, not only well written, but reviews were stating"A remarkable uplifting story that needs to be read by many" Amazing how events snow ball.The Italian american Press wrote a super review.The Ohio Magazine chose the book as Book of The Month for the Aug 2004 issue.I was invited as the key speaker at an event in Washington DC. Now I have scheduled over 20 library events including universities libraries where they are excited to listen to my experiences and hear about my book.As a senior I now travel all over our land performing to crowds that are thrilled to meet me and find new friends.I receive letters from readers thanking me for my book as it has changed their lives and changed for the better. Please visit Amazon ISBN 097091122X or my site at HTTP://WWW.FRANCOANTONETTI.COM and read for FREE! "I Wouldn't Die" a memoir by Franco Antonetti.
