that are part of the grief and bereavement process for widows and widowers. It

thinking and feeling will greatly benefit the healing process. This uniquely

“It is my intent that readers will understand that the suffering incurred in grief and bereavement is a gift … a wonderful means of growth, instead of just a time to be painfully endured,” states the author. “Great personal losses can leave one bitter. Rather than become bitter I want my readers to become better persons as a result of their experiences.”
