Outstanding Dad Tiki (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798275503869)

Outstanding Dad Tiki: The Triumph of the 24-Karat Heart tells the extraordinary, inspiring true story of Clyde William Collins, affectionately known as "Tiki". Abandoned in Herculaneum, Missouri, at age eight, Tiki was forced to carve his own destiny, rising from manually setting pins at a segregated bowling alley to becoming a celebrated athlete, a founding member of the legendary East Bay Dragons MC, and the Final Inspector at General Motors. The book chronicles his decades of immense personal sacrifice, including enduring a frigid basement for ten years to ensure his sons' comfort, before a late-life partnership transformed him into a millionaire real estate investor and a beloved wood-carving art instructor. Penned by his devoted son, Clyde Andre Collins ("Lil Tiki"), this is more than a memoir, it is a powerful testament to the unwavering presence of a true hero, proving that destiny is built on integrity, hard work, and a 24-karat heart.
