Keeping His Ashes Claudia Ellquist

Keeping His Ashes is a book about death and the wrenching grief that follows the loss of someone we cannot bear to lose. Claudia's husband dies from cancer, she miscarries their only child, and their beloved dog dies. We share Claudia's strength -- and her vulnerability -- as her life falls apart, and we see how her faith sustains her through her multiple losses. But Claudia's unique and powerful insights are the overarching draw of this book. This is a love story that goes beyond love to the course of a grief that unfolds, impossibly, into peace and service to the living.
