“Writing from the heart about grief, Paul Bennett tells his story from the depths of his soul. In Loving Grief Paul helps us to see that experiencing loving memories does not mean you cannot also love again. As he describes his experience of Bonnie’s continuing presence, Paul reveals insights into unexpected growth he finds within his grief.”
