Forever an optimist, at the age of 93, Joe says every day is the best day of his life, even though he’s lived alone since the passing of his wife twenty years ago. He wants the reader to know what it’s like to live in a small, wooden house with eleven other people and no indoor plumbing. As a parent as well as a longtime coach, Joe wants to share his memories of a loving family and the strong moral values with which he was raised and that he passed on to his children and his students. Along the way, Joe Hayes accomplished, as an outstanding athlete, a status few other athletes can claim.
