Drawn to the Heavens: My Story of Love, Devotion, and Perseverance in the Face of Adversity - Paperback

by Stephanie J. Beavers (Editor), Robert J. Atkins (Author)

Bob Atkins has been dealt more than his fair share of adversity over the years. And he has always accepted what life has handed him without complaint. What has helped has been Bob's ability to view most everything through a positive lens and focus on what is good. And a natural curiosity to learn and experience new things has led him to take on more than one interesting endeavor, including learning to skydive. Bob is most proud of his pinnacle accomplishment of skydiving at the North Pole... after having suffered a stroke just months earlier. This book tells Bob's story-the misfortunes and setbacks he has experienced and his vision to keep moving forward and living life to the fullest. Ask Bob what matters most to him and he'll say his God and his family, with skydiving coming in a close third. Bob hopes his story encourages others to always find a ray of sunshine, even in the bleakest of skies.
