John Morgan Mullen attended Michigan State University, where he married his college sweetheart and earned a BA in communication arts. He was a quarterback for Michigan State University on two National Championship teams in 1965 and 1966. John has two children, Todd and Stephanie, and is a grandfather to Jake, Brennan, and Hailey. John’s new book, “Straight from the Heart,” started in lieu of greeting cards and expanded as a way to express his inner feelings. His collection talks about the ventures he and his wife Jill took and the inspirational life lessons he’s learned along the way. The words in “Straight from the Heart” will always remain dear to John’s heart as his wife lost a battle with cancer and will now have to read his touching tribute from heaven.
