Fishing With Joey: A Memoir of My Marine Son - Paperback
by Thomas Logan (Author)
Every parent would cherish a summer with their son before his military deployment. For author Tom Logan, fishing with his son Joey across 16,000 miles created the most memorable trip of a lifetime. Unburdened by life's usual worries, their days revolved around choosing the next lake and the right fishing lure. Nighttime campfires under the stars provided the perfect setting for deep talks, some laughs, and typical father-son jokes.
Tom's trip with his precious son was unknowingly his last. A helicopter crash in Afghanistan claimed the life of CPL Joseph "Joey" Logan during a tour of duty. Following Joey's death, Tom began journaling about the many "divine" coincidences he was experiencing to cope with his grief. Simple but extraordinary events helped Tom and his wife cope with their painful and lonely days. The Logan's deep sorrow led them to create a Montana mountain retreat for Marines needing rest and recovery after their service. It was the carrying forth of a dream their son had shared shortly before his death. Through the Logans' story of faith and resilience following their son's death, you will learn about the goodness of humankind. Fishing with Joey helps readers understand the value of treasuring each day spent with family and friends and experiencing the simple pleasures of life.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
