Not Fade Away

Peter Barton was born to lead and destined to teach by the example of living life to the fullest, and facing death with uncommon honesty and courage. He became an overachieving Everyman, a risk-taker who showed others what was possible. In the prime of his life—hugely successful, happily married, and the father of three children—he faced the greatest challenge of all: stage IV cancer. With unflinching candor and even surprising humor, Not Fade Away / A Father's Journey Toward Faith, Meaning and Peace explores how Peter faced this terrifying disease with grace and dignity. It was no easy feat: Peter had to face many challenges during this time—some physical, some emotional, some spiritual. Yet from it came meaning and purpose that are timeless.
