Tough Talks About - Guidance, Control & Inspiration Over Life

Tough Talk with Tony Gambone and his guest Lawrence Agresto & June Stoelzel

On May 20, 1995, Larry Agresto became a single father literally overnight. His wife Jody, mother of his two daughters Lauren age 11 and Julia age seven, was rushed to the hospital on Thursday night and pronounced dead on Saturday morning. She had not been ill, so this turn of events was both a shock and tragedy for Larry and his daughters. Although he wasn’t aware of this at the time, Jody was and her last spoken words to him were “take good care of my girls.”  Larry made a promise and as a result, he committed himself to being the best single father he could be and he made raising his girls a priority in his life.  From 1987 to 2002, he has also coached over three hundred (300) student athletes in town and travel league basketball and softball. He attempted to start Single Dads with Heart about a year after Jody died but between his role as a single father and his career in corporate America, he had to abandon his dream and project until now. . Single Dads with Heart was developed to provide support, guidance and inspiration for single fathers.  http://www.singledadswithheart.com
