My Father My Faith

Alexander Toth was an American cartoonist, born June 25, 1928 in New York, New York. He was known for his animation designs for Hanna-Barbera, as well as a long list of work for DC Comics, Dell Comics, Golden Key Comics, Marvel Comics, Standard Comics and Warren Publishing. He was inducted into the comic book industry's Jack Kirby Hall of Fame in 1990. He passed away May 27, 2006 in Burbank, California at his drawing table. He was survived by his four children and seven grandchildren. Written by his oldest daughter, this is the story of their relationship and the last year of his life. When he became ill, she came back into his life after not talking to him for a decade. He hadn't left his house for fifteen years. She became his medical advocate in a broken system, and together they made his final dream come true...to become "family." It is a story of faith, inspiration, divine intervention and forgiveness. His artwork, "doodles" and family photographs are integrated into this book.

Dana Palmer lives a simple life on the shoreline of Lake Michigan. She freelances as a writer and designer. In addition, she has a private practice as a life consultant, and handles the family business tied to her father's estate (Cartoonist Alex Toth). She believes in God, miracles, and divine intervention--and love as the greatest impetus for change. One of the most powerful tools she brings into her practice is her tapestried life experience, including the relationship she had with her father. It changed the way she views everything.
