I wasn't surprised when my grandma promised me she'd contact me from the after-life. Born during the Progressive Era in Greenwich Village, Gram was one enlightened lady. Believing in psychic abilities and life after death became a test of faith for me during a very dark time. Longing for a spiritual connection to her and to something deeper and more profound in my life, grieving and soul searching took me to unexpected places. I questioned the surety of my life as I knew it and wondered would Gram keep her promise and would I be open enough to receive it? The Butterfly Promise is an intimate and reflective memoir about grief, family bonds and everlasting love. Through the author's authentic voice of treasured memories and self-discovery, she reveals the vulnerability of taking a journey we all must take when a loved one passes. It's an inspirational tale examining spiritual beliefs, faith in promises and about the power to believe in loving bonds that may hold true forever.
