Dad’s book is published at last. He started writing it a few years ago. He wanted to tell his story of growing up, getting married, having children and living through ALS, Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
My sister Mary worked with him as he wrote the book and started the journey of putting it in print. In June of 2024 I joined their team. At that time I picked up where Mary left off and continued to edit and also look for publishing. I waited to share the book with the public until my siblings had gotten copies. The book is available on Amazon.com in paperback format, hardcover, or kindle.
“May I Keep You Covered”
Every morning Dad would send us a prayer through our family group chat. No matter what he was going through. Whether he had dialysis or was not feeling well he thought of us and sent a prayer. I decided to publish some of his prayers he sent via text. Technology, right? The text messages are on electronic devices that years from now I may no longer have. Putting in print the prayers he took the time to send us will allow his words to live on for generations.
