The Great Depression, World War II and the Post World War II-- no doubt about it, life in southwest Philadelphia during the 1930s and 1940s was a challenging period. Poor...but, Very, Very Rich! is a detailed account of actual family life and experiences during some of the most iconic eras in American history. Houses of worship coupled with schools, family, neighbors and friends all banded together to support each other during these difficult times, sharing the little they had with each other. People were taught and practiced the Golden Rule, cared about each other and did whatever was humanly possible to help. Technology as we know it was not around, and so family and friends maintained contact in other ways. They were much simpler times; perhaps times we of the modern era could learn from. As explained in the book, “Materialism, as we know it today, did not exist in our neighborhood. We shared similar circumstances, learned to care about others, and were happy to share their successes with them. Through it all, we survived; and, as a result, knew happiness in a very difficult period. We were indeed Poor…but, Very, Very Rich!”
