Synopsis

Listen While You Can is Suni Nelson’s story as she met with her family members to transcribe a journey back in time, telling of her two extraordinary parents. Even as her mother, Ruby Kerley Tabor, defied incredible odds to live, she sacrificed one life dream for another in order to love. Her father, Marshall Tabor, a decorated WWII veteran, rescued both children and animals in France, searched past the shores of Normandy for his brother, shot down a German bomber plane, and survived a winter shipwreck in the North Atlantic. This is a story of family, selflessness, music, dancing, dreams, horses, dresses, determination, overcoming, and above all, love and faith. It’s the story of a Middle Tennessee couple who with integrity and charity made their community and family better. From Crossville to Fairfield Glade to The Dorchester Riding Stables to Europe and beyond, this is a moving story that begs to be told…so listen while you can.
