This is the story of Dyanne Mason Jones, a child of segregation, advocate for integration, and a warrior for God. Written as a gift for her granddaughter’s future sixteenth birthday in 2025, it is a story of family, inner growth, passion, music, love, tragedy, and miracles. She takes you on a journey of sixty-one years, through five family generations, in a background of race, cultural, and world issues. It begins in Tulsa, Oklahoma, swerves across America, and continues in Frisco, Texas. People who have met the author want to know her story. If you have not had the pleasure, meet her between these pages. You might find your story through her life experiences.
