<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A feisty professional in her forties, trapped in the unrelenting world of workaholism, forges an incredible bond with a centenarian--and life takes on a whole new meaning for both of them. Prepare to laugh, cry, and be inspired to live a more meaningful life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Judy Gaman was so busy making a name for herself that she barely took the time to meet a stranger, enjoy life, or simply stop to breathe. Immersed in her job as the director of business development for a high-profile medical practice--a job that required her to write health and wellness books and host a nationally syndicated radio show--she spent every day going full speed ahead with no looking back. That is, until the day she met Lucille Fleming. <p/> While writing a book on longevity, Judy interviewed Lucille, an elegant and spirited woman who had just recently turned 100. Lucille had the fashion and style of old Hollywood, but it was all hidden behind the doors of her assisted living center. What began as a quick meeting became a lasting friendship that transformed into an inseparable bond. Lucille brought incredible wisdom and great stories to the table, while Judy provided an avenue for excitement and new opportunities. Together, the two began living life to the fullest, and meeting the most interesting people along the way (including Suzanne Somers). But then Lucille's life came to an end through unexpected and unfortunate circumstances--and the very first lesson she ever taught Judy proved to be the most important one of all.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>2020 CIBA Hearten Book Awards Grand Prize Winner<br></b><br><b>2020 International Book Awards Finalist in Best New Non-Fiction</b> <p/><b>2020 Readers' Favorite Honorable Mention in Non-Fiction: Women's <p/>2021 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Awards Silver Winner in Autobiography & Memoir <p/>2021 NYC Big Book Awards Winner in Friendship</b> <p/> <p/>"Part memoir, part tribute . . .
