About the Author
Roberta Etienne was born Roberta Shirley Lee, youngest daughter of Donald L. Lee and Mae Louise Chandler, both USMC (Ret.) She grew up and attended school in Redford Township, Detroit, Michigan with her four brothers and sisters. Her mother passed away from cancer when Roberta was twelve years old, but the lessons her mother had taught her and the strict guidance of her father instilled in Roberta a powerful work ethic and a sense of the beauty and mystery of life (and of death) that carried her through several years of difficult life lessons. Those qualities show intensely throughout this book. Although not attending higher education until later, she raised five children nearly single-handedly and steadily passed through the several stages of retail foodservice to emerge as general manager of a restaurant on Bourbon Street, the French Quarter, New Orleans, Louisiana. Roberta met her husband during this on-the-job journey, while in southern Kentucky. Sam has encouraged and supported her in her many endeavors since 1998. This current work is not her first foray into authorship, but is the first to reach print. Roberta is also an accomplished photographer, having produced all of the photos in this book and holding licenses as a freelance photographer.
