Stan Cromlish was born and raised in Belmont, North Carolina. He has always had a fascination with history and historical facts; especially The Great Depression and World War II. Recently he was given the correspondence of his grandfather and grandmother and those artifacts along with a collection of pictures from them has given him an urge to put to paper the story of the Cromlish and Suggs families. This is the first book in that series. Stan has divergent hobbies including fishing, hunting, dog training, and stamp collecting. He has been active in the Belmont Historical Society of Belmont, North Carolina and is currently serving on their board of directors. Growing up, he took part in local Optimist Oratorical Contests and was an Eagle Scout in the Belmont First Presbyterian Church Troop 62. Stan has always made it known that he wanted to know the past to help prepare for the future. He is currently employed as a software engineer for a large telecom company. Writing gives Stan an ability to put to paper thoughts and facts from the past that may or may not be well known.
