Mrs. Beiler: Personal Narrative
1 - 2 graphic per paragraph

Mrs. Beiler’s full name, that I was able to find, is Anne F. Beiler. She was born Into an Amish family on January 16, 1949 in Lancaster County, PA. She along with her family, seven other siblings, were Amish Mennonites ever since Mrs. Beiler was about three years old.
If you remember from my paper about her, Mrs. Beiler has a very unique educational background. She went to school for the majority of her childhood, but decided to quit school after eighth grade. She was finally decided to get her GED when she was about 50 years old. This meant that most of her career as a business leader was spent without a diploma.
Before Beiler was able to get her GED, a couple of colleges gave her honorary degrees. The colleges that gave her these degrees were Elizabeth College and Eastern University. She got honorary doctorate from these two school.

Beiler was younger, she was in charge of making the bread for the rest of her family. Doing this, I believe, helped her later on when she decided to change the recipe. Around the time she decided to quit school, she got a job waitressing. Her job of waitressing taught her customer service that she ended up using when she started her business.
After she was able to get her first stand started, and had the recipe changed just right, she was able to expand the business. She retired from the company, and gave leadership to her second cousin, Mr. Sam Beiler. Since Mrs. Beiler did this, she was able to write two books, that I mentioned in the paper, and go around to different places in order to tell people about her story.
Mrs. Beiler decided to create Auntie Anne’s to help herself get over everything that happened to herself.
Ever since Beiler was able to create the company, she was able to have over 1,700 locations across the world. Since there are so many locations, they are the world’s largest hand - rolled pretzel

    I feel extremely responsible for the horrid tragedy of what had happened to that young lady. On the other hand at the time it took place I was in a furious temper; I had tried on this dress, and well.... it just didn’t suit me at all! Then the girl- had tried on the dress as if she was wearing it. And it just suited her. She was the right type for it. She was very pretty too- with big dark eyes. I caught sight of the girl smiling at Miss Francis- as if to say, “doesn’t she look awful”- and I was absolutely furious. That is when it all happened. I lost all sense of what was right and let anger and jealousy fill me up to the direst cruelty. I said without second thought of consideration to the manager, “this girl had been very impertinent”. You see it didn’t seem so bad at the time. She was pretty and looked as if she could take care of herself. Well now I know well- ‘never judge a book by its cover’. However now it is too late! I cannot even go back to say, “sorry Eva Smith”, never mind helping her, thought if I could now that I know the great, vile grief I helped to cause this girls death, I would do all I can for her. Oh why had this had to happen? I feel I can never go to Milward’s again- I noticed even this afternoon- I suppose some of them remember.…

    The imagination I come across all starts with Ms. Bernstein’s, her whole life is pretty much what the book is about not just the Holocaust. In my opinion it made her personal experiences so real. Ms. Bernstein’s talks about her childhood, schooling, family and how she traded. Ms. Bernstein’s was very detailed about her tragedies. The only thing I didn’t like about the book was that Ms. Bernstein was very detailed during her horrific experiences.…
