A couple of years ago, I attended a publishing conference in California. One of the highlights was meeting a wonderful daughter-father writing team — Anne Marie and Al Parisi.
After cancer treatment left Al disabled, the stay-at-home dad and former executive decided that, his outlook needed adjusting. Rather than focusing on the things he could no longer do, Al gave himself a promotion and a new title.
As CEO of Parisi Enterprises, Al found renewed joy in his family. He and his colleague/daughter Ann Marie later penned “Lunch Bag Notes” – documenting some of the loving communication and guidance he provided during her teen years.
That was followed by “More Lunch Bag Notes – Everyday Advice from a Dad to His Son,” a book co-authored by son Anthony.
Both are stories of healing, family and faith. Who knows, maybe you will decide to write a few lunch bag love notes of your own!
