Publisher's Synopsis
I am writing these memoirs so that those coming after me will know what information I have or have been able to locate about each person. This information is as it was supplied to me or as I remember it - how I saw life through my own eyes or how I felt at the time of these events - and what I may have learned from the experience. Other family members may remember some of the incidents and yet see it all from a different perspective. That is life. It is to their benefit to learn from their own experience. My late father - Edgar Donald Norman Miller - kept a very detailed diary from late 1937 (when he joined the lighthouse service) until he died at Gold Coast Hospital on 13 October 1994. He kept this diary right up until a few days before he died. Please remember - This is MY story.
