Keion Carpenter was the greatest man I ever known. I think his passion for life and success motivated me to be more determined to be successful growing up. He lived a life of filled with surprises and adventure. He was the type of person that could see a ordinary person like the guy by the bus stop or the guy working in the barber shop would see and would always be grateful to be blessed by his presence. Its easy to say my big brother stuck out like a sore thumb and naturally he deals with the consequences of life facing different pressures as a young star coming up. This is the man who defied all his challenges and barriers by believing in God and in himself and moving with a purpose to execute his goals. Sure he goes through obstacles with strife and grief like all of our children but theirs a little secret in this book to help you and your future star if you believe in your child like I believe in mines and his. Keion Carpenter dedicated his life to helping kids like himself when he retired from the NFL.
