Reggie Lewis
Quiet Grace
Reggie Lewis was on the verge of
superstar status in the National Basketball
Association when he died suddenly of a
heart condition at the age of 27. He had
made his first All-Star Game appearance,
and he was the leader and team captain of
the Boston Celtics.
But Reggie was far more than just an
accomplished basketball player. He was an
outstanding young man — warm, caring, and
generous. He gave back to his community,
both of his wealth and of himself.
This is the story of Reggie’s roots. You
will learn of the family members, friends,
and forces that helped shape him. All of
us, young and old, can benefit from the
example of his life.
Much has been said and written about
the controversy relating to Reggie’s death.
Although this book objectively addresses the
questions raised, it does not dwell on them,
nor does it point fingers or assess blame.
This story has a more lasting and valuable
theme: the quiet grace that characterized the
life of Reggie Lewis.
