Real People, Real Stories The Rest of the StoryDecember 19, 2010StoryLine gives voice to everyday people throughout our community as they share the experiences that shape their lives.
Tim Tingle is an award-winning author, a sought-after storyteller and member of Oklahoma's Choctaw (Chok-taw) Nation.
His great-great grandfather was John Carnes. In 1835, Carnes walked the Trail of Tears. Later--he passed-down memories of this family epic that eventually fueled Tim’s interest in writing and storytelling.
In this segment, Tim describes to Teri Hairston what he calls an amazing experience while speaking at a U.S. Military Base in Germany in the mid-nineties.
StoryLine is a project of the ECHO network and is made possible by the generosity of Salemtowne, a continuing care retirement community, where every life shines and stories are celebrated.
