AUTHOR BIO FOR

“LET ME BE A LIGHT”

Richard L. Rotelli, a retired Mechanical Engineer, enjoys the challenges involved in writing true life biographies. During his professional career with three military defense contractors as well as three commercial sector businesses, his skill as a writer was sharpened. It was only natural that in his retirement, he would take on the rewarding work of capturing the remarkable life story of Father Ron Lawson. Bringing that amazing priest’s faith journey to the pages of a book was truly a cooperative effort, with Father Ron providing an enormous amount of raw material based upon his recollection of an incredible amount of detail.

Mr. Rotelli, a graduate of Worcester Polytechnic Institute with a BS in Mechanical Engineering, resides in Chelmsford, MA with his wife, Patricia. They have four children, seven grandchildren and three step-grandchildren.
