How Crayons Are Made by Phoebe Marsh

-Julian Lennon: (Chef as Poet) is sentimental and sweet and deliver's Terry's personality well, from his kind nature to his talents not only in the kitchen, but with pen and paper. A beautiful gift to the world in remembrance of a talented soul.

Professional chef Terry Kelley's Chef as Poet-posthumously completed and published by his brothers-is a powerful tribute to the enduring love of family and the power of food and poetry to connect us, even in the midst of tragedy.

The book unfolds with a moving preface written by brother Richard as an affirmation to his love for his younger brother. The two had been working on a book of their favorite poems coupled with family recipes when Terry suddenly died of a massive stroke. On the day of his death, before Richard had received news of his passing, he clearly heard Terry's cockney voice urging him on: 'Know wot, Rich? I fink you should finish the book.'

Richard enlisted the help of another brother Paul, also a chef, who put the final touches on the recipes that were among Terry's favorites. The result is a deeply moving testament to family, hope, and the unexpected losses in life that can bind us together.
