Mean to Meaningful by Edward B Wile

Mean to Meaningful is an engaging story that illustrates the powerful impact of a hand up. The book chronicles the journey of an angry child raised by a hard working mother and a loving grandmother. It was a challenging time and absent the influence of sports and the encouragement of a few special coaches this story probably ends in a graveyard. Ed Wile loved football, and his coach, Jack Peterson, convinced him to go with him to college. Jack was a rising star and was headed to Wofford College as the offensive coordinator. No one in Ed's family had gone to college, and this was a once in a lifetime opportunity.Ed thrived on the football field but failed everywhere else-until a pretty brown-eyed girl found him and began to gently resets his faulty compass. They married and life was good until a toxic brew of alcohol and violence nearly ruined their marriage and left him unemployed with two young children. He decides to pursue a career as a stockbroker trainee not really knowing what would be expected to survive. He suffered from a constant fear of failure, but used this weakness to navigate the many challenges that stood between failure and success. Along the way, his wife, Vickey Wile, showed him the many things that he had to do to be a good father and husband. Find out how Ed conquered the obstacles and discover the invaluable lessons he learned on his way to becoming a respectable husband, father, and leader in this touching, inspirational memoir.
