I think it is so great the way you and your family really pulled together to finish your husband's book. When I first read the story it brought me to tears. Such love is displayed in that one simple act. I know Stephen is smiling in Heaven. I have been wanting to read this book. I used to be a huge western fiction fan but I haven't read any in awhile now. I'd love to read your collaborated efforts.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Wanda Barefoot<br />flghtlss1(at)yahoo(dot)comWanda (A Book Lover's Retreat)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18076000759904095877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-36948713560055917572014-04-01T22:11:42.734-04:002014-04-01T22:11:42.734-04:00Thank you for this great post.
