Reviews

Fellow-healer John Kelly devoted his life to the physical, emotional and psychological healing of the socially and racially disadvantaged. His story inspires in these troubled times. --Deepak Chopra I've been blessed to know John Kelly for 45 years. He has been one of the most influential treasures in my life and in the lives of people from all the different backgrounds where he traveled. John Kelly was a collector and influencer of people because he talked, supported and loved them. [He had] limited means except for his overflowing heart of love that he extended to all who he encouraged. John changed the lives of so many people that he [was] the 'Godfather of the Peninsula.' As a priest at Serra, a private counselor, a driving force of Samaritan House and in the last chapter of his life, counselor at San Quentin Prison, John profoundly impacted the very existence of those he encountered. Speaking for myself and my family, we are extremely thankful that we were honored to be his friend. --Tom Brady, Sr. John Kelly lived his life helping Black and minority lives matter, ahead of his Christian church and ahead of the current social movement. John's life story in The Quintessential Good Samaritan is a heartfelt template of racial fairness and equity. Kelly's dedication to those in need and his compassion for all, lifted and inspired me and those around him who witnessed his extraordinary contributions to humanity. --Susan Manheimer, former San Mateo and Oakland, California Chief of Police John Kelly was a true leader, with courage and commitment to help others help themselves. As John Calvin Maxwell succinctly stated: 'To add value to others, one must first value others.' John Kelly's legacy will be his compassion; his devotion to the physical, emotional and psychological healing of the socially and racially disadvantaged is a beautiful model to guide us all through these uncertain and troubled times. --Warren Blank, PhD, President, CEO, LeadershipGroup.com
