Dancing My Way Through Hell!
An Autobiography
by Gene Shirley Richey


Her mother sternly said, “Gene! Stop that tap dancing right now! You’re going to dance your way to hell!” The first half of her life surely felt that way – three sexual assaults, two abusive husbands, three children for whom she was the sole provider. Nevertheless, during that same period of her life, Gene and her violin went on a summer tour with young Billy Graham. She was also given a TV contract with the original Hank Williams Band in Montgomery, Alabama, as twin fiddler. DANCING MY WAY THROUGH HELL! focuses on life struggles and a forgiving spirit which was the key to bringing Gene through those experiences in six states from coast to coast and leading her to an amazing future.


You will take away so much more than Gene’s amazing life story. You will be rewarded with her invaluable spiritual insights and penetrating wisdom and, through her diversity of experiences, she will unveil the healing power of love and forgiveness. Her quest for the answers to life’s most esoteric questions and her courage and stamina through her many challenges, will uplift and inspire you to better face those in your own life. – Rosalind Borders, Broker-Property Manager Borders Realty, West Palm Beach, Florida
