Torrie Nunnally's book "Togetherness, Without Standing Too Close" is a loving memoir of the author's and her husband's lives and fifty-two-year marriage

NEW YORK, Dec. 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The late author, Torrie Nunnally, was a retired educator, real estate entrepreneur, and US Army veteran. She sadly passed this past spring, but her brother, John Poon, has completed her book for her. "Togetherness, Without Standing Too Close": is a deeply personal reflection on the lives of two people who escaped the limitations of the Jim Crow South of their youth, met their soul mates half a world away, and ultimately forged a remarkable life together.
Torrie and Curtis were from different states in the United States. He was born and raised in Georgia during the Great Depression. She was born and raised in Alabama during World War II. While education was encouraged in Torrie's community, sharecropping was given top priority in the rural area of Georgia where Curtis grew up. He was forced to leave school before finishing the fifth grade to work in the fields.
Both Curtis and Torrie looked long and hard for ways to escape their challenging beginnings in the Jim Crow South. He found his way to New Jersey and from there into the military. After graduating from high school, she, too, joined the Army. This move made all the difference for both of them. Their paths met in the military as next-door neighbors in Japan. They would go on to a shared path of togetherness for over half a century.
It has been said that it is not so much where one starts out in life but where he or she ends up that makes the difference. The difficult beginnings of these two individuals turned into a success story that needs to be told. Curtis overcame his education deficiency and earned three college degrees, including an electrical engineering degree from the University of California in Berkeley, where he completed a successful thirty-seven-year career. He also completed a career in the United States Army Reserves as a command sergeant major. He then became a successful real estate salesperson. While all this was happening, Curtis and his wife, Torrie, made time to become real estate entrepreneurs. Torrie, too, earned three college degrees and completed a thirty-four-year career as an educator. She retired from her second career as a captain in the Army reserves then went on to become a holistic wellness practitioner. Torrie gave more of her time to activities related to the performing arts, which had always been her passion.
Curtis and Torrie's paths did join, but they would tell readers they succeeded on their journey together because they understood the importance of remaining true to their individual paths where they stayed true to each of their own life's purpose. In other words, they enjoyed a life of "togetherness, without standing too close."
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Torrie Nunnally's book is a vivid portrait of a marriage and a loving and successful partnership of over half a century.
