Cecilio The Crucifer

My name is Joseph N. Padilla. I live in the greater San Francisco Bay Area, which has been my home most of my life. After serving overseas in the Korean War, I returned home to my wife to start a family with three wonderful children, she is now with the Lord. My first novel “Adventure the Long Walk,” (After Christ) which was a forty-year project. I was seventy-six when I finished. My second novel “The Nail” followed two years later. Now at the young age of seventy-nine, I introduce my latest novel “Cecilio the Crucifer”. Travel with me on a journey of adventure and history at the time of the Lord Jesus, before Christ’s Crucifixion. Cecilio, I created to represent the soldier that nailed Jesus to the cross.
