MY FATHER ALWAYS SAID HE WASN’T A HERO…

. . .but a newspaper article tucked away in a family photo album told a different story. It spoke of a summer camp, a sinking sailboat and some scary moments for five teenagers. If not for the intervention of a light-keeper and his wife, they surely would have all perished.

My mind filled with questions. Who were these people? Where are they now? As I set out to uncover the details of that long ago afternoon, little did I know how much the rescue had changed the world or how much the story I was about to uncover would change me.
