With his passing, more memories creeped in, but the box remained closed. Over time, Lori realized all the lessons she learned from this man full of integrity couldn't be contained in a box. They were already in her heart.In this, her collection of letters to her father in Heaven, Lori shares her memories, her dad's teachings about life, and what she eventually uncovered in his mysterious notes when she lifted the lid of that box..

Reminiscence Writing Recounting memories leading up to or following the loss of a dear one reminds us of ways that person touched our lives. While reminiscing, it is amazing how one can find glimpses of tenderness, joy, and happiness in the hardest of times. The goal of my storytelling about those I've loved and lost is to share some aspect of who they were, how they shaped my life, and ultimately, comfort me-and others-during times of loss.
