Preserving Lives

the long version

Harold O'Neal was born in 1910; his wife-to-be, Sarah Christian, in 1914. When these two young people began their journey, the idea of the American Dream wasn't something they thought about or scholars wrote about or politicians wailed about. That would all come later, when the official dream was codified and became a catch phrase, to be analyzed and studied while being attained by fewer and fewer people. But in those years the way Harold and Sarah lived their lives was just the way it was, the way it was supposed to happen, once upon a time.
