Thomas Amore’s life was nothing if not a ride on a roller coaster. Although he grew up in a fatherless home, he persevered to become a high school and collegiate football star and later served his country as a member of the United States Army during the Vietnam War. He learned on more than one occasion that life has a way of changing in an instant, both for better or worse. But through all the ups and downs - including homelessness - there was one personal possession that he never let out of his sight, and that may very well have saved his life. It’s never too late to start living life to its fullest, he realized. And it’s especially never too late for love.
