In Celebration and Memoriam: Warmed by Love, by Ron Nickerson

It always fills me with great joy to witness the moment when an author whose story I participated in editing at last come to print. Warmed by Hope, by Ron Nickerson, is the latest occasion for celebration.

This time, that shining moment when one more precious pilgrim joins his voice to the traveling band of all who write, read, and live life in such unique and important ways (which, by the way, is all of us) feels especially poignant.

When I saw that Mr. Nickerson's book had been published, I also learned that Ron, in the words of his Christian faith, fell asleep two months ago to await the Life-Giver's return.

He did not get to see his book reach the shelves, but to focus only on that would be to miss the larger beauty and power of his writing journey. He devoted himself to walking his path and sharing his story for as long as he could, and in my estimation that vision alone, and that effort, fueled by love and conviction, has positively impacted the world.

I hope his book reaches all the readers it needs to reach. I also hope that his attitude of community and his irrepressible commitment to telling the stories only he could tell inspire the rest of us to also tell, and listen, and to seek and share love.
