All Is Well
Autor Kevin P Martinen Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 iun 2023
Kevin P. Martin, Sr. was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease, better known as ALS, in August 2019. He died only a month later. Over a thousand people would attend the wake and funeral in South Boston After all, Kevin Sr. was a leader in the Southie community and in the Catholic Church, both as a business owner and family man. But Kevin Jr. struggled with a bottomless grief; neither his father's example nor his own faith as a permanent deacon in the Archdiocese of Boston fully equipped him to cope with the loss.
All Is Well is the story of the good life well-lived and the life lessons Kevin Sr. taught his son. It's a story of how his son moved from darkness to light after his father's death. It is a memoir that offers a roadmap out of grief, taking a path whose landmarks are the Beatitudes, family, miracles, baseball, rites of passage, bucket lists, love and life lessons, and insights into leadership, marriage, parenting, resilience, practicality, suffering, giving, forgiveness, joy, and savoring the little things taken from the life and career of a servant leader. It paints a portrait of a consummate professional and family man, and sheds light on the up-close realities of ALS. It offers one exceptional father's example for how we can better live our lives, living a life without regret and how we can make the best of the time we have, and how we can do the most good with the journey we're given.
Part Tuesday's With Morrie and part Townie, this memoir offers solace and a path for those who are experiencing or have experienced grief from losing a parent, especially to terminal illness. Those that believe in a higher power, especially but not limited to the Catholic community, and those from Boston and elsewhere in New England, and those looking to find lessons in the good life well-lived will readily find themselves in All is Well.
