Winner of the April “My Gutsy Story” contest

May 17, 2012 by Sonia Marsh

Esther Goodman

 

Greetings from Paris, where I’m announcing the WINNER of the APRIL “My Gutsy Story” contest.

 

 

Esther Goodman

1st place: “Felicitations en francais” Congratulations to Esther Goodman, winner of the April 2012, “My Gutsy Story” contest. In her post, Esther wrote about her Holocaust Revelations. “The journey I took gathering and researching information world wide, and the relationships I formed trying to connect the dots to my mother’s past.”

Your wonderful fans all voted to support you. Well Done Esther.

Keren-Niccole Bunnell

2nd place:Keren-Nicocole Bunnell. Congratulations Keren. You are truly a hero for taking care of your younger siblings, after your parents passed. Not only did you help them grow up, but you also have an extremely talented family of musicians.

 

JoAnn Abraham

3rd Place: JoAnn Abraham wrote a story which I’m sure will help others who suffer from a fear of heights, escalators, boat ramps and more. The photo you submitted is proof that you have overcome one of your fears. Well done and thanks for submitting.

Rebecca Hall

 4th place: Rebecca Hall  is the perfect example of someone who has chosen to follow her passion, and not  feel that she is “stuck” in a place or a job she  doesn’t like. Good for her for finding happiness somewhere other than where she was born and raised, despite what her family and friends may think.

 

Ritchie White

5th place: Richard White AKA Shotgun Bo Rivers, shared his enthusiasm for rodeo with us, and how his amazing eight-second ride, impacted his life. Richard also served in the U.S. Armed forces.

You are all WINNERS, with such amazing writing and stories to share. Thank you for participating, and to all VOTERS for taking part.

Our WINNER Esther Goodman  gets to select his prize from our new list of SPONSORS,

Do you have a “My Gutsy Story” you’d like to share?
