Larochette Book, The Tree of Lives
Larochette Book, The Tree of Lives Presentation was a huge success. Jackie traveled on the road with Jean Pierre and Yael in their two small motor homes from Fort Bragg to Moscow, Idaho. The book about their lives together was received with huge enthusiasm at all the venues. Many of us have just finished reading this remarkable book and are amazed and thrilled with all that it reveals. Congratulations from all of us at PTArts. Click to see book cover:
