And about reconciliation with God. "Islam considers Judaism and Christianity as three forms of the same | religion, which in its 'original purity' was the religion of Abraham". | | "In the Koran 29:46 Muslims are enjoined to respect Jews and | Christians, the People of the Book, who worship the same | God". |
Editor's note: Since receiving the book in August of 2008 I have read | it twice, it is that interesting! |
Robert was raised in Texas, and comes from a ranching family. | In this region of Texas the Fawcett name is linked to community | service and success. Robert's grandfather, E. K. Fawcett was | the first driving force in promoting Scouting in this area. | | After graduating from Old Del Rio High, Robert attended Southern | Methodist University where he studied Finance. A call to | duty interrupted those studies when he chose to serve in the | Marine Corps. He then returned to SMU, continuing his education. | | His greatest accomplishments in business came in the field of trans- | portation. Guiding logistics and distribution from his position as CEO, | he built a trucking company from the ground floor to one that would | influence retail distribution on a national scale. That company was | sold in 2007. |
Fawcett now resides in the mountains of Colorado with his wife, Sallie. | They have been blessed with two children, and four grandchildren. |
Editor's note: When we conveyed the fact that Robert had written | a book related to world religions to some of his classmates, the old | high school stories started flowing? We'll fill you in on | those stories at the next All Class Reunion on | October 9th and 10th, 2009. | | Robert's book may be purchased in Del Rio at the Emporium | on Main Street or online at http://www.majorreligions.com. | Robert said anyone purchasing this book at either of these loca- | tions, and if they convery same to the seller, he will donate $5 | to your Wildcat web site. | | On this site you will find "Alumni Writers", which dtails a | history of Robert's Texas Ranching Family. |
