A gift for Ron
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This was a remarkable story about true friendship, which the world is so lacking today. It was easily readable and well-written.
A Gift For Ron: Friendship and Sacrifice On and Off the Gridiron
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is not your typical football story. This book tells the story of how Everson Walls comes of age to give his kidney to his best friend and "brother" off the football field. From his on-again-off-again high school football experience, his first true football experience that forever shaped his life at Grambling State University and legendary Coach Eddie Robinson, to his time in the NFL, Everson chronicles each of these experiences in detail and depth tying everything that happened to him back to his growth into the person who made a living organ donation. He weaves amazing stories of his life, going back and forth in time, with each chapter being tied to a theme. This book is more than a one-dimensional look at the career of an NFL player. It looks at all aspects of the life of a true hero (who will NOT call himself that). Everson continues to give the gift of life to all that read this book. This book is a must read for any sports fan, or any person who wants to understand the mind of someone who truly lives a selfless life.
