Nothing in Barney and Fran Myer’s initial meeting on the pickleball court indicated that they would go beyond playing a few games together. Nor would another brief pickleball match years later hint at the deep love and transformative impact they would have on each other’s lives.Their dynamic relationship played a pivotal role in the rapid growth of pickleball, propelling it to become the fastest-growing sport. As a pickleball power couple, they not only contributed to the sport’s expansion but also played a part in establishing the USAPA, now known as USA Pickleball.This is a memoir that spans their fourteen years together, intertwined with Barney’s numerous accomplishments. When Barney receives a diagnosis of a rare neurodegenerative disease, he and Fran refuse to dwell on self-pity or succumb to defeat. Instead, their story centers around resilience and courage, showcasing how this extraordinary couple confronts a challenging prognosis together.Each day presents new obstacles as the illness relentlessly progresses, yet they strive to infuse their lives with meaning, purpose, and joy. Their journey serves as an inspiration to all.
