Lessons from a Golfer - Susan Lebel Young - Bog

In the summer of 1999, Susan Lebel Young's father had a cardiac scare, resulting in seven-way bypass surgery. In response to his illness, Susan journaled, corresponded with friends, and wrote poetry. Here, she puts this experience into a story for each of us-weaving the lessons of golf through the lessons of life. Susan's father, Ray Lebel, played jazz horn, completed a career as an oral surgeon, and was a golf champion-winner of Maine State Amateur six times, holding the national record for the most club wins, and listed in Sports Illustrated as one of Maine's top athletes. His life lessons came to him through golf, and he imparted those lessons to his children. In Lessons, his eldest, Susan Lebel Young, shares them with you.
