It's A Glorious Day - Paperback

Some fights happen in a ring. Others begin in a doctor’s office.

When I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, I entered a fight that tested my strength, my faith, my family, and everything I believed about perseverance.

It’s A Glorious Day is not a polished story about a man who always had the answers. It is an honest memoir about fear, treatment, exhaustion, mistakes, gratitude, family, faith, and finding reasons to keep moving when quitting would have been easier.

Through personal reflections drawn from my Pittsburgh upbringing, more than forty years in business, marriage, fatherhood, friendship, heart disease, and Stage 4 cancer, I share the lessons that carried me through the hardest years of my life.

Inside these pages, you will find:

• Honest stories about facing cancer and uncertainty 

• Lessons about work, family, friendship, faith, and resilience 

• Humor in places where humor should not have survived 

• Encouragement for anyone facing illness, loss, fear, or a major life change 

• A reminder that gratitude and hope can still exist in the middle of a fight 

I am not a doctor, preacher, or motivational speaker. I am simply a man who has been knocked down more than once and kept getting back up.

This book is for anyone who needs reassurance that fear does not have to win, hardship does not define the ending, and the fight is not over until you quit.

Open the book. Walk the dirt road with me. And remember: today can still be a glorious day.
