I am purchasing your book today for my daughter Rachel's best friend Emma, 9 yrs old. 6 months ago Emma and her twin brother Brinton got brother and sister Black Lab puppies.. Emma named her girl puppy Molassas. On Christmas eve Emma and her parents took Molassas for a walk...they live on a farm and have a big pond. The pond was covered with thick ice. Molassas ran out onto the ice and fell through. Emma's dad tried desperately to get the puppy out from under the thick ice, but he could not. Molassas was lost right before Emma and Brinton's eyes. Their Dad retreived Molassas from the frigid water the day after Christmas by putting on a wetsuit. I am grateful for the Angels in my life. I looked at your wesite a few days after Christmas and knew as soon as I saw the book I would need it for someone soon, I just didn't know who. Later that same afternoon I was told the story of Emma losing her puppy. My angels led me to your site. I feel so bad the puppy drowned so horribly, but I am so so greatful it was not a child in the pond. My heart aches for Emma to witness such a thing at the tender age of 9. I am hoping your book is good for her. Thankyou Lisa from Baltimore Hi Kathy

Sorry for them, they did not know Tara and could not see the how beautiful her world is. Thank you for such a gift Marg! And thank you Kathy for creating this heirloom.

They have touched me so deeply and I am so grateful. This weekend in the New Milford store a customer told me about her friend, also named Tara, who had lost 2 siblings this year and she was sure that the book was sent to her to help her friend. Another customer told me of a 4 year old who lost his mother to cancer. After reading the book he ran into daycare saying "my mommy's an angel!!!!" I believe that Tara's Message is spreading in its own way and reaching the people that need it most. I wish everyone a wonderful year filled with love and light...

It has been such a hard struggle for Kelly. She is full of pain and loss. I usually have nothing to say that will help comfort her. Today I was in West Hartford Center and saw "Tara's Message".

I also bought a book for my family to have and share the beautiful message of death and finding comfort and peace when it happens. thank you V from a postcard sent back to Kathy-
