No Better But Different

Every family has a story. Like my father Robert Lawrence Lamp Sr. used to say, "we are no better, but different." My sisters and I, our children and grandchildren have all been impacted by the legacy of love our parents gave us. How does a family insure that future generations understand and adopt core values that will make their lives better and different?

Musician Robert Lawrence Lamp Jr. chronicles a midwest family living and learning life's lessons, sometimes the hard way. Whether you're a family member, friend, or someone wanting to pass on values to your own family, No Better But Different will prove an enjoyable inside look at what matters most.

"A delightful and relatable family story including happy moments and challenges. Rob Lamp’s struggles with infertility, survival from cancer and a successful career navigation after a mid-life crisis are inspirational. Many life lessons for any individual or family.” (Lily Bengfort, Guided Autobiography Instructor)

“Rob paints a clear and detailed picture of his life, the forces that shaped it, and the joys and travails that enriched it. While it is a story well-told, with rich language and photos to introduce readers to the many characters, Marsha and I can attest to its accuracy. Like the many tiles that create a strong and dramatic mosaic, Rob’s autobiography enhances the rich texture of our larger Lamp family story.” (Marsha Lamp Cochran and Jan Lamp Gehler, Rob Lamp’s Sisters)
