Inside is a collection of essays and columns that share experiences, thoughts and perceptions of life along that journey.from carrier to columnist. I think you will enjoy them.but what do I know? Tom Treece and his wife, Renee, live in Monroe, Michigan, and cherish time with sons John, Nathan and grandsons, Drake and Gaige.
