How I Got Over (Paperback)

I was born John Westly Burts on March 20, 1942, in Hurtsboro, Alabama. I was reared by my grandmother from the age of two months until I joined the U.S.A.F. in 1960 at the age of 18. My formal education from kindergarten to high school graduation (Roosevelt High) was in the school system of East Chicago, Indiana. Twice married, I am the father of seven (Cyd, Ben, Fonda, Ava, Wanda, Dale, and Vicki). I am now single. My work record includes: steel worker, personnel specialist, U.S.A.F., autoworker, and textile worker. I opted for early retirement in 2002. After retirement, I enrolled at Chattahoochee Valley Community College and received an associate of artas degree. I have been a member of Faith Worship Center International, Full Gospel Church, since March 2000. I now reside in Russell County, Alabama.
