Synopsis
Used for years by individuals, grief counselors, and support groups, Roses in December has helped readers understand the grieving process, support family members, give insight into sibling grief, and maintain their marriages during difficult times. This newly revised edition offers the same compassion and encouragement plus chapters on losing loved ones under special circumstances, such as suicide and AIDS.
With deep empathy, Marilyn helps those who are grieving find God's comfort. Having lost three sons, she knows the tremendous sorrows and struggles that come with the death of loved ones. Yet she shares how even in the winters of our lives God provides roses--special occasions, special people, and special memories--to give us strength and draw close to Him.

Review
"Grief is a part of life and Marilyn Heavilin expresses the realities of grief clearly in Roses in December. She surely allowed her feelings to be transparent in an effort to help the readers realize what feelings they might be having. An excellent tool through the sad journey of loss."
