This book is written as a tribute to Robert Marsh Cooper. Staggered by his death and crippling grief, the author began to write her way back to health. She has said that it was as if Bob was writing with her and she has incorporated his poems and letters so that his words can be heard directly. This book is a gift to those who know what it is to love profoundly, live joyfully, and then to be faced with parting. She tells a poignant story of their life together with both wit and grace. If the reader is learning how to pick up the pieces of a life shattered by loss-this book offers hope.
