The Waltons1971

Narrator:
[narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] As with most families everywhere, on Waltons Mountain we were faced with all kinds of troubles, large and small, some growing out of personal weaknesses, others thrust on us by our changing world. Mostly, when troubles struck we drew together, united against the common enemy, and came out of the struggle closer than before. But one year, my family suffered a loss which, rather than bringing us closer to one another, scattered us and threatened to destroy the fabric of our lives.
