Morrie Schwartz :) what a wonderful man.
Morrie Schwartz was Jewish. His religious beliefs and spirituality played a significant role in his life and the lessons he shared in the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" by Mitch Albom.
At Morrie's house
Mitch Albom wrote "Tuesdays with Morrie" as a tribute to his former college professor, Morrie Schwartz, who was battling ALS. The book documents the life lessons and insights Albom gained from his conversations with Morrie during their Tuesday meetings. Albom wanted to share Morrie's wisdom and teachings with a wider audience.
He was 78 years old when he died in November of 1995. The book is sad and it rocks!!
