John J Maher

John is a husband, a dad, and a grandfather, and he's in the unenviable position where he writes with authority on two fatal car crashes. In the first of those crashes, he received life-threatening injuries, the result of which he was classed as unemployable at age 42.

Worse was to come when he and his family were dealt the cruelest of blows. Just thirty months after John's car crash, Carmen (age 18), the youngest of his four daughters, was killed in a car crash when she went to sleep at the wheel.

For John, Carmen's Legacy is the culmination of twenty years of writing. It has been the most difficult and confronting journey to re-live and produce his family's journey of tragedy, hope, and ultimately, happiness as a family. This true-life story will empower every reader to understand they are the most important person in the world to those who love them.

Carmen's Legacy may be the best gift any parent or grandparent could give to the young driver in their family. It may save their life. The roads are the most dangerous place to be, and a family member will use the road every day.

The strength of this family will inspire you as you laugh, cry, empathize, and live the life of this family. John's words take you on an amazing journey, his family's journey, and you will feel it is your journey.

You will cuddle your children, your partner, your parents, and your friends. Your life will never be the same after you read Carmen's Legacy.
