James Earp

James Earp, Denton :: has written a new book, The Governor’s Four Hearts (Tate Publishing), which chronicles his struggle to find comfort through faith in the face of his family’s mounting medical problems. James went through two artificial hearts on his way to a heart transplant while losing his son to Hodgkin’s disease. He writes, “If things are going well for you and all those you know, you are a blessed person, and this book is not for you. However, if you are that person, I would suggest you put the book on the shelf. There may come a time in your life when it will be for you.” He has been married to his college sweetheart, Mary Graham Earp (’67), for 43 years.
