A Dad’s Journey Through Grief

About the Book

If you have experienced the tragedy of the death of your child,        this book is an invitation for you to        walk with me on this path.        While everyone grieves differently,       sharing this road with me may help you        realize the grief you are experiencing is        “normal”, and validate any unfamiliar       feelings you may encounter in your        grief.  It is my hope that you will also        be able to reinvest in life. If you have concern for one who is grieving  the loss of a child,         this book may give insight into the         grief.  Since the loss of a child is so very         different from other deaths, this book         may also give you understanding and         the tools to offer comfort.
