Early this morning, I received an e-mail from Chris Wall.

Perhaps you read the Sunday story about his book honoring Justin Sullivan, the Yukon High School baseball player who died tragically five years ago. The minister at Council Road Baptist Church sent along some good news Wednesday morning about the sales of “A Life Worth Following”:

The response to Sunday has been almost overwhelming. I could never have imagined this kind of response. I am about to run out of books and am hoping that the next shipment gets here soon. Thanks so much.

Would you like to order a book? You can check out the website at www.alifeworthfollowing.org. It has details on the book as well as Justin and the non-profit organization that Wall and others are working to establish.

From the happy sound of things, though, there’s no guarantee of Christmas delivery on the books.
