A life remembered through the people and moments that mattered.
Some lives are remembered through famous events. Others are remembered through family stories, small moments, difficult choices, and the people who never leave us.
Mom Called Me Dickie Bird is Dick Clark Shumaker’s personal account of more than eight decades of living, learning, creating, losing, and beginning again. It holds memories of childhood, his brother Davie, his parents and grandparents, his wife Lil, his children, his business experiences, and the lessons gathered along the way.
