Arbutus O'Neal (1916 - 2009) (AFG) of Brownwood Texas - Arbutus was an early Texas AA family member before Al-Anon began. She attended her first meeting in Amarillo in 1948. She helped establish Al-Anon in Texas and became the 1st Texas Delegate to the first Delegate Panel convened by WSO in NYC. She next served as a Trustee to WSO and knew both Bill and Lois Wilson. Arbutus gives us a perspective on the impact alcoholism has on every family member, not just the alcoholic. She learned to see the difference between the person she loved and the alcoholism they suffered under. This collection contains many talks. In each, she adds something different from the others. To get a perspective on the early days of Al-Anon, we recommend you listen to several. Many include a period of answering questions directly from the attendees, something Arbutus enjoyed doing. She gives a perspective on use of the Big Book by Al-Anon members and AFG Literature. | |

Bob Earll (AA, ACA) of Hollywood, Redondo Beach, Los Angeles, Santa Fe. Bob passed in 2018 (1935-2018). Bob was a funny but controversial speaker in some circles. His language was a bit rough at times, although by todays TV standards probably the norm. He spoke his truth as he knew it. Bob had a rough childhood, including being expelled from school in the 10th grade, incarceration, and alcoholism and drug addiction. He got sober and clean in Los Angeles in 1962 and became a highly popular recovery circuit speaker throughout the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. Go to the Bob Earll Collection of Talks by clicking here. | |

Dr Paul O (AA) aka Dr Paul Ohliger MD (1917-2000) Dr. Paul penned one of the most famous verses in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous "Acceptance is the Answer". “And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation - some fact of my life - unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment.” Dr. Paul originally wrote a story in the AA Grapevine Magazine titled “Bronzed Moccasins”. The story was later published as chapter “Doctor, Alcoholic, Addict” in the 3rd edition of Alcoholics Anonymous. In the 4th edition the name was changed to “Acceptance Was The Answer”. Dr Paul and his wife Max were popular AA & Al-Anon circuit speakers. He was also the long-time sponsor of Scott Redman. Paul Ohliger died May 19, 2000, in Mission Viejo, California at the age of 83. | |

Pepe A (NA / AA) aka Pepe Manuel Acuna (1939-1989) An early member of NA. Pepe was clean for more than thirty years. He said "I never realized when I got clean that recovery was about to introduce me to a thought system completely contrary to the thought system that I had when I was using drugs. That was my problem, a thought system that I believed in and lived by. My thinking was my problem and it's been corrected every day. I am beginning to see perception a little clearer, and that's a miracle. A miracle is a shift in the perception. What I see and fear, I now see with love." Pepe died from cancer in Pepe died in February 1989 at the age 56 years old and still sober. He continues to be a legend in NA having impacted many in the recovery community. | |
