First Bruno...Now This

About the Book First Bruno...Now This tells the story of two brothers from Hyde Park, Massachusetts, brought up in the same household in the 1970s. For any outsider, their lives appeared perfectly normal. But what is normal? Ron Welliver’s family had a strict, hardworking, church-going mother, and a quiet ghost of an introverted father who folded himself inward in his haze of alcoholism. The author takes the reader into the dark world of his brother’s ways of the street and the code of honor that, to him, made sense. In the end it would cost him his family, and later, his life. Is upbringing nature or nurture? Read how one brother stays a problematic, small time criminal drug abuser, while the other brother becomes a family man and street cop of thirty-one years.

About the Author A Boston, Massachusetts, native, Ron Welliver is a retired law enforcement officer of thirty-one years. He is a veteran of two Boston Marathons, and at the age of fifty-seven, his passion for hiking was born. He completed all forty-eight of the New Hampshire four-thousand-foot mountains a few years later. For over twenty years, Welliver volunteered as a middle school and high school football coach. He and his wife, Susan, raised their family in the southern New Hampshire area where he currently owns a small lawn care business.
