About this product

Product Information

In 1974, the Philadelphia Eagles and McDonalds teamed up with AUDREY EVANS, M.D. and JIMMY MURRAY to create the world's first Ronald McDonald House. Many NFL teams¿followed and created Houses in their cities and the Houses have now spread throughout the world.Jimmy Murray, LEONARD TOSE and their team-including legendary coach, DICK VERMEIL-led the EAGLES to their first Superbowl. But Jimmy's lasting legacy will be the partnership which built that first Ronald McDonald House and sparked an idea that keeps growing and brings honor to the NFL, McDonalds and all who give their hearts, money and time to help children and their families."Life is an Audible" takes the reader inside the world of professional sports, and far beyond. Jimmy is a natural-born storyteller. Some Irishmen have the "gift of the gab"...and one might question some tales..."The Pope spots you in a crowd of one million holding up your son, and came over and blessed the boy...then, years later, remembered it when you, JAMES MICHENER and others visited him at his private residence at Castel Gandolfo...you're sure about this?" Days later, Jimmy sends you pictures. So when he tells you about running a restaurant in Malibu and hanging out with MARTIN SHEEN and the Hollywood crowd, you have to believe him. As a recent Villanova grad, heading for his job with the "Atlanta Crackers" he stopped by Bill Veeck's house after writing to ask if he can pick the guy's brains and the famous baseball owner and consummate promoter-who sent in 3' 7" Eddie Gaedel as lead-off hitter for his Cleveland Indians against Detroit-of course, says "Sure kid!" Jimmy Murray is a storyteller with a heart of gold and the integrity to match. Raised by solid parents who dropped him at the Augustinian Seminary in Staten Island as a young lad only to have him arrive home after he and his accomplices were thrown out after shenanigans that left no doubt that the priesthood was not his destiny! Jimmy's path led to Leonard Tose - the rest is history.

A humble, quiet man’s inspiring journey.
This book is so fascinating. A story about a classy gentleman and others around him, who worked to create an amazing organization—Ronal McDonald House. A very inspiring that I could not put down.
