From non-verbal to loquacious, living or legendary, everyone has something vital to say which adds to the richness of our lives in myriad ways.
In this short read, you will meet different examples of being A beauty pageant family that doesn’t accept alternate life choices; an introvert that became a Toastmaster; a poker player who turned pain into healing, two men who chose to die before their voices faded, a daughter’s love/hate story that inspired her to create a legacy of better communication with her children, and a best friend who passed but whose messages of love, family and forgiveness will live on.

Tolver … Honor Your Mother Lonnee Rey … The Light in Our Lives - Dedicated to Michelle Laaks
The best-selling book of all Rey's books so far and for a very good reason: topics, ranging from the loss of two family members utilizing Canada's MAID (Medically Assisted / Death with Dignity) to introverts finding their voices, to dementia stealing a friend from a friend, all are moving essays on the many ways one can be rendered #speechless.
One of the most interesting is by Lafaya Mitchell, LMFT - she shares a way that helped special needs kids find their voice AND is now using it to help as the Poker Therapist (because poker can make you lose your mind!) This chapter inspired her to write "Poker: A Woman's Game" due the success of this book, "SPEECHLESS."
