About this listen
This is a story. A story of living with a gentle giant, a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. He was kind, generous, and very slow to anger. This is a story about love, perseverance, and how love conquers all.
Becky Perry Brown was married for 54 years to country music legend Jim Ed Brown, member of The Grand Ole Opry for over 50 years and a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame. While he followed his dream, her dream was to be a professional dancer. She was a model who taught self-improvement and dance classes. Eventually, she followed a dream and opened her own dance studio. For 46 years, young people came and went through those doors, learning ballet, tap, and interpretive dance. They became a part of the story, and Jim Ed and Becky were a part of theirs.
By writing this book, Becky has shared some of the good times, some of the bad times, some funny stories, some lessons learned, and set straight some rumors. She had her doubts at times, but God has never failed her. His grace is sufficient always. He truly sent Jim Ed her way, and they had a wonderful journey.

The beautiful and tragic saga of the Louvin Brothers-one of the most legendary country duos of all time - is one of America's great untold stories. Charlie Louvin was a good, God-fearing, churchgoing singer, but his brother, Ira, had the devil in him and was known for smashing his mandolin to splinters onstage, cussing out Elvis Presley, and trying to strangle his third wife with a telephone cord.
