The Dispair
As mentioned in my dedication to my wife Linda, we celebrated our 50 Wedding Anniversary on September 12, 2021. My beautiful wife went up to Heaven, less than two months later, on November 3, 2021, nine days short of her 70 th Birthday.
Linda suffered from Lewy Body Dementia which is a type of progressive dementia that leads to a decline in thinking, reasoning, independent function and generally has a short life expectancy.
The pain and hopelessness felt in your heart is beyond comprehension.
There are no words in the universe to describe the anguish, sadness and hopelessness I have felt. My heart has been broken.
Lewy Body Dementia is a vicious assault on the human brain.
I pray that someday soon there will be a breakthrough for this crippling disease that took my Linda from me and the world.

the story behind the novel
The love between the two characters in the book was real, and I thank God every day for that.
To make the book more appealing to the masses, I created a crash landing on a deserted island
where a father and son must work together if they were going to have any chance to survive.
While on said island, the son unknowingly develops a skill set unique for baseball, but his only concern is to get back to his lovely Linda.
Without giving away too much of this book, it's a fantastical journey where baseball magic happens through spectacular plays and love is a grand slam.
This story Baseball After Life, captures true love, faith in God and family, perseverance, and the
will to never give up. In todays time, I feel this message is sometimes lost or not highlighted enough.
I believe Baseball After Life is a Feel Good Book for everyone and possess this beautiful message.

This is a story about a teenage boy deeply in love with his childhood sweetheart, but he is also trying to please his father who wants him to have a career in baseball.
The characters are well developed and the story kept me entertained from start to finish.
This is the first book by this author and I hope there are more to come.

It’s an amazing tribute to you and Linda and the special people you and your family are.
I always knew you loved Linda but this book expresses your deep faith and the beautiful
degree of that love. You were both blessed people to have experienced that kind of love. It’s good you put it out into the world so others are inspired. Thanks so much I enjoyed the whole
book.
