As the bard famously stated in "As You Like It," "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players." In other words, all of life is theatre, a collection of stories to be told. In the hands of a master storyteller, even the most mundane of life's stories can find its audience and can become compelling in its own right. REMEMBERING MOM AND DAD is a collection of essays and short stories written over time remembering Bayla and Jerry Jacobson. The stories include personal recollections from the author's experience along with the retelling of numerous events related to the author in conversations over the years. Some of the stories included are: "Music in the House," "The Parenthood Plunge," "The Jacobson Pet Parade," "Disney Days of Summer," and many more.
