RT Book T1 Missionary memories A1 Dingee, Ron LA English PP North Charleston, SC PB Createspace YR 2012 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/896294412 AB "Based on true stories, "Missionary Memories" recalls the life of a 93 year old father whose son attempts to learn more about his father and, in doing so, hears for the first time, many extraordinary stories of his father's experiences as a part-time medical missionary that took him from his dental practice in western PA [Pennsylania] to a remote village in western Africa, Latin America, Haiti, Mexico, and Thailand. The book contains many stories of the father's missionary experiences, and details the difficult lives of the people he visited, and the hardships they faced not having medical or dental care. The story also recounts many of the difficulties his son had dealing with his father's declining health, and the complexities of today's health care system eventually ending in hospice care."--Publisher information SN 9781468082722 SN 1468082728 K1 Dingee, Ron : Family K1 Dingee family K1 Missionaries, Medical : Biography K1 Missionaries : Biography K1 Baptists : Missions
