Patricia asked Will Schwalbe:

Hello Will! This is Patti from Saratoga not Sarasota! Lol. I lost access to my email, so I have not been able to email you. I have just purchased "Books for Living" and am starting it this evening. I read the introduction last evening, and am already relating so much to your thinking. I am really looking forward to this read. Happy to connect here so not to lose touch?

Carolyn
Carolyn asked Will Schwalbe:

Hi Will, my dear father Murray died 10th July- last week. It was a journey similar to you and your mum, except he wrote two family history books in the last six months and I formatted them and helped research. The question is.... I now have time to read and look after myself. What books would you suggest at this stage of grief? Regards, Carolyn
