ECHOS FROM THE HEART is written from the author's personal life, in three parts. In Part I, she takes the reader through her story of being widowed at 26 with two small children, examining grief and the lessons she learned in moving forward through the heartache of trauma and loss, into a new beginning. Part II is a compilation of ten uplifting essays, or letters, regarding faith, life and love taken from her experiences. As an ordained minister, Part III provides the reader fifty-four beautiful affirmations of promise for two people in love, based on the sacrament of marriage.
