“This healing resource shares a much-needed message about love beyond bars.” Sandra Kay Barnhill, JD, Founder and CEO of Foreverfamily said. “When I started reading See You in the Sky, I didn’t want to put it down. There are so many fantastic life experiences in this story. If you only take one thing away from reading this memoir, your life will be better for it.”

_________________________________
Local author and Life Coach Jeri Ross joins us to share her deeply personal story of being the daughter of a notorious drug-trafficking kingpin serving a life sentence in maximum security federal prison. Jeri writes about how her childhood trauma of witnessing domestic violence and finding out at the age of ten, that her dad was in prison instead of away at school. Hers is the story shared by millions of sons and daughters of the incarcerated across the country.
See You in the Sky is a tender tale of hope revealing how finally, through many years, Jeri learns to trust and reconnect with her father by being honest, facing her hurt and opening her heart to forgiveness. “This healing resource shares a much-needed message about love beyond bars.” Sandra Kay Barnhill, JD, Founder and CEO of Foreverfamily “When I started reading See You in the Sky, I didn’t want to put it down. There are so many fantastic life experiences in this story. If you only take one thing away from reading this memoir, your life will be better for it.” Harvey RV Powers, currently incarcerated.
See You in the Sky: A Memoir of Prison, Possibility and Peace
On a summer afternoon in her hometown of Decatur, Georgia, eight-year-old Jeri Ross dressed up for a family dinner at Morrison’s Cafeteria, stepped out onto the front porch, and saw her father punch her mother in the face. Within weeks, she and her sister came home one day to discover that their mom was gone. After moving in with their grandparents they learned that their father was sent away to prison. She was told not to tell anyone. Thus began decades of Jeri hiding family secrets, avoiding shame and being afraid of being abandoned. Until the day Jeri decided to change, to heal.
See You in the Sky offers hope for all families affected by incarceration and for anyone who decides, at any age, to seek a more meaningful life.

The Farm & Garden Market is a small, friendly, open air market made up of local farmers and gardeners who grow within about a five mile radius of Corralitos.
Seasonally we have the tastiest strawberries, blueberries, cherries, lemons, tomatoes, herbs, squash, potatoes, carrots, peas, beets, and avocados, as well as a variety of other fruits, vegetables, lettuces and salad greens.
We have bakers that offer wonderful treats, along with a table full of beautiful potted flowers.
You may find expertly handmade natural soaps, and homemade jams and preserves.
The market is open to all of our friends and neighbors who grow anything from a garden to a good back yard fruit tree.
Open every Sunday 11am to 3pm, rain or shine, at the Corralitos Cultural Center, 127 Hames Road
For a booth we request a $5 donation to the CVREA, the non-profit who maintains the Corralitos Cultural Center.
