About the Book

Fran has promised to help her granddaughter with a term paper comparing the differences between living in the twentieth century and the twenty-first century. As she writes, Fran can't help but recall the memories of her life and of the events that shaped who she is. True Love Grows in Brooklyn narrates Fran's life journey through the changing political and social tides of the twentieth century. She was born and raised in Brooklyn during World War II. This memoir follows her carefree childhood days visiting New York fixtures such as Coney Island, Ebbets Field, and Wolf's Pond in Staten Island. It tells of her meeting Frank, the love of her life, and of their marriage and powerful relationship. It relates her internal struggles balancing her working life and her motherhood, raising six children. And this story addresses her grief when Frank passes in 1982, just eight days before their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. Fran tells of living thirty-three years after the death of her beloved husband, knowing that their love will never die and some day she will be reunited in heaven.
About the Author: Frances Ruocco was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. She believes that our world is filled with Towns just like Brooklyn, where many couples find the love of their lives. They in turn raise their families, sharing happy and sad times, while believing that all they share here on earth is only the beginning. The best is yet to come.
