There is no greater pain than having lost my father and brother from the senseless act of a drunk driver. My love for my father and brother, Guy, will continue to be as strong as it has been my entire life. This book is not only about the horrific acts of Diane Schuler and the suffering that she has caused so many people but also about the added pain caused by those who fabricated stories about her actions that day. I was raised in an Italian-American family. My father taught me how important family is. I especially remember when he told me that my brother will \"alwaysbe [my] brother\" and that I should always be there for him--and that my brother would always be there for me. My brother was always there for me. In keeping the promise that I made to my father, I hope this book can in some way speak for my brother, Guy, and my father. They are two of the greatest people the world will ever have known. \u003cbr\u003eMichael Bastardi Jr.","brand":"Dog Ear Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47084574572784,"sku":"2940015799521","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015799521_p0.jpg?v=1763633082","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015799521","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
