As a writer, I'm totally in awe with the reader response to my memoir, Twenty-Eight Snow Angels: A Widow's Story of Love. Loss and Renewal. It's receiving awesome support and endorsements from grief professionals, readers and organizations supporting those facing loss. Reliving the devastating loss of my husband as I reread my journal entries, studied photos of our life together and cried through endless drafts was hard. I almost gave up. Now that my story's helping others, I'm glad I kept going.

"I am grateful that this author had the courage to share her very personal story so honestly and openly with others who will benefit from reading this book. Diane's chapter describing her efforts to let go of her deceased husband's piano is a classic, and nothing less than a treasure unto itself. Suffice it to say that her book is one that, as a grief counselor, I am pleased to list as one I've read myself and personally recommend, to clients and colleagues as well."
