"In Their Boots: Poems Inspired by Soldiers and Their Loved Ones" is a captivating and profound collection that transcends war and opens a window into the warrior and his and her loved ones. Never before have I experienced poetry so powerful, so poignant as this. This is a masterpiece." - Lillie Lovette, literary evaluator, Mississippi Humanities Council. LaFrancis believes in "giving back," thus has committed to give portions of his proceeds to the non-profit Fisher House Foundation - www.fisherehouse.org He has been the cornerstone of veterans programs in his home community of Natchez, Mississippi, spearheading a drive to restore the damaged Veterans Memorial, coordinating the community's Veterans Day Program and American Flag Retirement Ceremony. He has led collection drives for soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and at the Veterans Medical Center in Jackson, Mississippi. His efforts have earned him a Certificate of Achievement from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. He credits his passion for soldiers and veterans to his father George, who fought in World War II, and his grandfather Maximilian, who fought in World War I. Both were proud patriots who inspired LaFrancis the need to honor those who fought to protect our nation's freedoms.
