Ray: One Man's Life

By Denele Pitts Campbell

"I've had my jaw broke three times, my nose broke five times to the point that the VA had to do the operation they do to boxers. My hand's been broke and on fire once, enough that the skin was gone clear back to my wrist. I've fell off buildings, ladders, and mountains. Somehow I survived all that craziness."How Ray Mooney survived the incredible journey of his life is indeed a question for the ages. Polio, combat assault jumps from helicopters in Vietnam, and three children by three different wives didn't kill him. Neither did the flagrant murder of his father by his father's latest wife. But the traumas changed him, as they would change any man. Told in his own words, Ray's life story rushes from one shocking experience to the next and brings him to the last days as he faces end stage lung disease. Turkey killer, outlaw, entrepreneur, and disabled vet, this boy from the horse farms and tobacco fields of Kentucky relates his adventures with wry wit and breathtaking honesty.
