Susan Kelleher knows what it is to lose the undemanding friend of a lifetime. With the understanding of this experience and the knowledge of so many others, she presents us with a wonderfully lyrical look at the death of a family pet. She has given us the very real sense of the transition that takes us and our companions to a place and time beyond the moment of passing to offer us the promise of peace, acceptance, and tranquility.
Susan's is a story of the sadness of loss and the poignant acceptance of the peace that comes with the knowledge that such a loss leads us to another plain of reality. In this short, real celebration of life, Susan affirms the richness of the lives we live with our pets and shows us the rewards that remain for those of us who have the courage to look beyond the loss and see the promise of life.
Susan sings a song of peace and the acceptance that comes with passing.
Susan Kelleher's MS in psychology and her MFA in creative writing serve her extraordinarily well in this short, diamond of a story. She helps us understand our loves and losses by drawing from the heartfelt events of her own family.
Rod Lawrence, the artist, brings added depth to the story with his superb illustrations. He is the only artist to have won both the Michigan Trout Stamp and Michigan Duck Stamp contests in the same year. His portrait of the beloved Josie hangs in Susan's office, a constant reminder of how those we loved challenge us to live.
