Richard L. Tabler is an individual that made serious mistakes in and throughout his life before finding the strength to write his own first book, "Within the Shadows of Life", in 2021. Those mistakes have cost him his freedom, and pain and suffering for others. It wasn't until Mr. Tabler turned 43-years-old that he was able to forgive himself and
love himself to fully accept Jesus Christ into his life and heart. It's through the Grace of God that he is able to write the book you now hold in your hand and that those in society live and care about Mr. Tabler's voice as he suffers from survivors' guilt here on Texas' Death Row.
