William's Story
Life
After four years in the Army during WW II, I married Virginia Walker and taught school: English teacher at Cambridge Springs, PA, Stroudsburg, PA, Wm Penn in New Castle DE, Conrad and Dickinson in DE, and Fulbright Instructor of American Studies at Langside College in Glasgow, Scotland. I was a school administrator for twenty years ,and retired after ten years as superintendent of Huntingdon, PA schools.
In the past six years, I have written and published four novels: AND YOUTH WAS GONE about the Depression and my experiences in WW II; a second novel CIVIL WAR SERGEANT resulted from an actual Civil War veteran I knew when I was about eight; the third novel GREED! is about a modern computer genius Robin Hood who robs illegal secret bank accounts and distributes the billions to needy people and organizations, was published August 2004; I finished a fourth novel entitled CAST THE FIRST STONE, about a preacher going through a midlife crisis with his congregation and family.The books are available on-line through iUniverse,Inc., Barnes and Noble, and Amazon and can be ordered through bookstores.

riting. If anyone wants an autographed copy of any of the four novels, contact me about price and shipping.
Unfortunately, my wonderful wife of 56 years died in April 2003. She had Alzheimer's and my son and I took care of her for fourteen years, but she had taken care of us for over forty.
I enjoy hearing from my former students and hope they will send me messages about their lives. I have written a series of anecdotes about students that I have taught, but I won't publish any about you without your permission. You can help by remembering things and sending them to me. See, I still haven't stopped giving homework!
I have established a blog for my books and exchange of comments with former students and others. The blog also has a picture so you can see how the old guy looks. William.Keim(at)gmail.com You can find me on Google too under William Keim books. I am living in Huntingdon, PA. south of State College
Again, I would appreciate hearing from former students, as I am in the process of writing a series of anecdotes about my years of teaching and the things you may remember. I appreciate your interest in me, but just don't look at my story, but tell me yours.
My love and best wishes to all of you.
