Abstract:
Father Ron Lawson was a Protestant for the first 25 years of his life. While serving with the US Army in Counter-Intelligence in 1959 – 1961, stationed in West Berlin, he felt the undeniable call to the Roman Catholic faith. Baptized and confirmed Catholic in Bavaria, he returned to the US to begin studies in the seminary to become a priest. His spiritual mentor, Maria von Trapp, was instrumental in providing support and encouragement in that journey. He became: a parish priest, high school chaplain, US Army Chaplain serving in Desert Storm, V.A. official and now Senior Priest in Residence.

In each of our lives, we can count on one hand the folks who have, by merely being themselves, given us direction, support and friendship. Often they don't even know it. Ron is an "good ole" friend from school days; was a leader then, and although we thought we knew him, it is this book that has rounded out the wonderful personality with all the parts of his life that he couldn't always share. We loved him then, and love him even more now.
........and he is not through!!!!!!!!
God speed, Ron, from Fred and Gale
