Letters to Heaven

The Story of a Grandfather’s Love, Loss, and Rediscovered Faith

In my small town, everybody knows everybody. They all knew my grandkids from the letters and stories I'd write about them locally.

When Zellie died, I just kept writing letters. Friends and neighbors, through their own tears, encouraged me to collect these letters to share with the world.

This book was written for three very specific purposes:

1) So that Zellie would never be forgotten.

2) To heal my own heart. I found it cathartic to write letters to my granddaughter.

3) To heal others. No matter the hurt you feel, I surely hope these letters can help you to a find a hopeful path to a rediscovered faith, just as I did.

Join My Journey

I found out the hard way that Heaven is real. It's really real. That if we're all connected to Heaven, then we're all connected to each other. This is where the power of prayer finds its strength.

We find our strength in each other. We can stay connected on this site or on the linked Facebook page dedicated to this book.

“I bought your book and here I sit at 12:44 am. I can’t put it down! I started reading it on our two-hour trip back home! I’ve lost 2 nephews. One was only 7 days old, the other 19. My brother was 26, when he took his own life. My life has changed forever! I’m so sorry your family had to go through this & will always go through it. You’re all in my prayers.”
