Bobby Wonderful by Bob Morris

His mother's last word was his name. His father's was Wonderful. Together they inspired the title for this true story of love and redemption.

Bob Morris was always the entertainer in his family, but not always a perfect son. When he finds his parents approaching the end of their lives, he begins to see his relationship to them in a whole new light and it changes his way of thinking.

How does an adult child with flaws and limitations figure out how to do his best for his ailing parents while still carrying on and enjoying his own life? And when their final days on earth come, how can he give them the best possible end?

In the tradition of bestselling memoirs by Christopher Buckley, Joan Didion, and with a dash of David Sedaris, BOBY WONDERFUL recounts two poignant deaths and one family's struggle to find the silver lining in them. As accessible as he is insightful, Bob Morris infuses each moment of his profound emotional journey with dark comedy, spiritual inquiry and brutally honest self-examination.

This is a little book. But it captures a big and universal experience.

Bob Morris is well known throughout Florida and the Southeast through his work in newspapers, magazines and television. A former columnist for the Orlando Sentinel, Fort Myers News-Press and The New York Times regional newspapers, Morris served as editor of Caribbean Travel & Life and regularly appears in National Geographic Traveler, Islands, The Robb Report, Men's Fitness, Bon Appetit and other publications. He is currently at work on his next novel, Jamaica Me Dead. He lives in Winter Park, Florida.
