Author Ramona Vallee was born in December 1948 in Cedar Falls, Iowa, to George and Eleanor Richardson. She had a wonderful childhood in a small town in America. She enjoyed reading, writing, and learning French in school during her teenage years.
She was discouraged by her college counselor, who told her that writing was an overcrowded field. She then decided to quit college. After working as a waitress, she saved money to go to beauty school and become a hairdresser.
She met her husband, Fred, of 42 years, on a blind date. He was a French Canadian, which intrigued her. They had three children. Long ago, she made a promise to her dad on his deathbed to finish the Civil War novel he started. Many years later, she’s finally able to fulfill her promise after writing “Expression of Honor” and feels at peace now.
George Richardson, born in 1920 in Indiana, was raised on a farm and became close to his grandfather, Homer Richardson. Homer shared stories of his experiences as a drummer boy in the Civil War.

He later worked as a crew chief over airplane maintenance and witnessed the Yalta Conference, where Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt were together.
After the war, he married Eleanor Morgensen. Together, they had three children. Eleanor knew how much George treasured Homer’s stories, so she encouraged him to write a book about them.
