A Tale of Silence

About this ebook
As you listen to Jon tell his story you will discover that deafness is a far greater burden to carry than being a black person in mostly white America.
This story is one which with the author struggled for many years to find the words that would do justice to the extraordinary silence that Jon lived with during all of his short 26 years of life. This story is about the joy of living and the grief a family feels when a child is lost to them far too early. Yet this story in the end is about hope.
As Jon would have it, his “real” father and mother make their home in Melbourne, Florida.
