Things Mother Said is a collection of quotes from the author's mother, Mildred Harvest Massey, who was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Mildred was only eight years old when her mother passed away, and she was subsequently raised by several aunts. Her aunts instilled in her the values of being a woman, a wife, and a mother.
In her late teens, Mildred married William M. Massey, a master electrician. In the late 1940s, Mildred and William moved to Detroit, Michigan, where they became the parents of two sons, William Jr. and Ronald. Tragically, William Sr. passed away at age 28 from tuberculosis, which he had contracted while serving in the U.S. Navy. Mildred was left to raise her two boys alone in Detroit during the challenging decades of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s.
This book captures the wisdom of the things Mildred said to ensure her boys would grow into productive men.
