Charlotte’s
Speaking Schedule
|
| |
|
In a short five-year time
span Charlotte’s daughter,
Sarah, has fought for her
life with the strength of
her family and close
friends. Be inspired and
encouraged to know as one
friend said: “Success is to
be measured not so much by
the position that one has
reached in life as by the
obstacles that one has
overcome while trying to
succeed.”
We may not
choose the circumstances
that we go through; but we
DO choose the attitude that
takes us through those
circumstances. When life
happens to you do you choose
to be positive or negative?
Do you use the storms of
life as an excuse to fail or
the reason to succeed?
Sarah chose to become a
co-author and illustrator as
a teen. Some days she can
barely lift a pen. With a
positive mental attitude,
perseverance, and the right
relationships you can go
through anything life hands
you.
Everything happens for a
reason.

Thank you very

wrote myself a

231 people
attended our

very
interesting. It
made me want to
read more books
about it. The
stories are
important to
keep the history
alive and were
very
informative. I
loved the
speaker and the
Nebraska
History! The
process with the
Humanities
Council went
very smoothly.
We had a very
good reaction
from the
audience. Both
children and
adults seemed to
have gotten a
lot out of the
program." |

My
favorite
person
you
talked
about
was
Lester.
I
thought
it was
cool how
the
agent
could go
up to
houses
and ask
people
if they
want him
or her.
Your
friend,
Cari
Howell
I
liked
the part
where
you
talked
about
Lela in
an
abusing
and
controlling
home.
Thanks
for
coming
all the
way from
Norfolk.
My
favorite
was
Agnes
Siegel.
She
lived in
my town
of
Steinauer.
Thank
you for
teaching
us about
the
Orphan
Train.
I knew
it
existed
but I
had no
idea how
many
were on
the
train
that
lived
around
here.
Thanks,
Grant
Tuttle
(7th
Grade)
I
thought
it was
interesting
that not
many
people
knew
about
how
badly
orphans
were
treated.
When you
gave
that
Raggedy
Ann doll
to that
woman it
was
really
nice of
you.

Dear Charlotte,
We want to thank
you for your
wonderful
presentation on
Sunday (March 15th)
at the Wayne
Public Library
Senior Center.
Your knowledge
and first-hand
experience were
invaluable and
such a blessing
for those of us
who were there.
You and Kevin
are a very
special team.
The history and
artifacts
relating to the
children made
the whole
experience come
to life. I
(Jay) viewed the
DVD as soon as
we got home. It
is such a
beautiful story
of hope and
heartache.
Thank you for
traveling all
those miles to
bring to us the
stories and
lives of those
men and women.
You show your
stories so well
that we almost
felt as if we
were there.
Again, thank
you!
Most sincerely,
Jay and Barbara

You'll find
something to
love on every
page of local
author,
Charlotte
Endorf's, "Unsung
Neighbors".
It begins with a
splash of
remarkable color
you'll never
forget,
witnessing the
irises amid the
sand of the
Nebraska
sandhills on the
very front
cover. Add to
this short
stories that are
fun to read
several at a
time or just one
a day. You're
sure to find the
stories powerful
messages of
inspiration,
motivation and
hope. This
remarkable book
is the tale of
her travels and
passion. It
intertwines
relationships
and unexpected
experiences
bringing
unbelievable
meaning to life.
Lose yourself in
every short
story. Come to
the perfect
get-together.
Topped off with
a visit from the
author herself! |

"We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee."

Between January and March, 2010, I will be giving back to the youth of our community in appreciation and recognition for all I have been blessed with. I'll be serving as the new speech coach for Norfolk Lutheran High School. Reverand Jason Wolter and my husband, Kevin, will be serving as my assistant speech advisors. |

Calling all fellow Toastmasters from Norfolk and surrounding communities… If you’d like to make a New Year’s resolution to do a good deed to “give back” and volunteer your evaluation skills. Let me know. The students are in constant need |
|
|
|
|
of extra “ears” to hear them and we’d truly appreciate your time. You’ll enjoy the peaceful, inspiring surroundings of their beautiful campus at the same time - and you would truly be 'making a difference.' |
