Sacred Vigil Press Testimonials



"I wanted to let you know how much my co-workers and I appreciated the three booklets that you wrote - 'If I Should Die', 'Telling My Life's Story' and 'Sacred Vigil.' Excellent! They have so many helpful suggestions on caregiving, on communicating with a loved one, about story telling and creating lifetime memories. Thank you for all of the work that went into writing these and for giving such support to so many folks who need a guide when going through such life changing experiences."

Penny Ender - Hospice and Palliative Care Center - Winston Salem, NC

“I work as a NODA (No One Dies Alone) volunteer and SACRED VIGIL was in the bag we carry to visit patients. It was beautiful to read as I sat with my patient. I even sang a hymn because all the words were there.”

Deni Callahan - No One Dies Alone - Providence, Alaska


“My father has dementia and time is short to share the memories he has held close to his heart for 93 years. TELLING MY LIFE’S STORY was invaluable...with suggestions in how to gently draw those memories to the surface. I was surprised at what I learned.”

Joanne Hebert - Medford, Oregon
