Books can be a great comfort. I grew up as an only child who had to spend a great deal of time alone. During that time, I had great adventures and traveled to countless foreign lands. I learned about people, both good and bad, rich and poor, all through books. Later in life, I was introduced to the most important book of all, the Bible, and the most important person, Jesus Christ. Through him, we live, both now and forever. I am now a grandmother. My great grandson KJ (Kenneth Junior) was the inspiration for this book. He loves to visit me and my husband and play with us and cuddle with us. During the height of COVID, the elderly were dying at such a fast pace. I wondered how our deaths would be explained to KJ. That's when the Holy Spirit began to give me the desire to write this book. I wrote this book as a way for parents to explain death and give comfort to their children in the loss of grandparents or loved ones. Parents, please have a conversation about every page in this book. I have included biblical references to reassure you that this book is written on the firm foundation of God's Word. My hope is that this book brings comfort, hope, and reassurance that we shall see and live with our loved one again.

Growing up in the well-heeled Detroit suburb of Grosse Pointe, Michigan, Carey Neesley always thought she and her younger brother, Peter, would never be separated. The children of divorced parents and outcasts in their neighborhood, Carey and Peter supported, loved, and encouraged each other when it seemed no one else cared. It was a bond that grew through the years, and one that made Peter’s eventual decision to enlist in the Army all the more difficult for Carey. With Peter having stepped up to help her raise her young son, Carey was closer than ever to her brother, and the thought of him serving far from home was painful. While stationed in Iraq, Peter befriended a stray dog and her four puppies, only to watch three of the young pups die in the warzone. With only two surviving dogs—Mama and Boris—Peter became determined to save the strays. Carey helped her brother with his mission, but everything changed on Christmas Day in 2007 when word arrived at the Neesley household that Peter had been killed. Amidst the grief of coming to terms with her brother’s death and the turmoil of trying to plan his funeral, Carey devoted herself to bringing Peter’s dogs home to the U.S. It was the final honor she could pay to her brother and a way of keeping a piece of him with her. With the help of an unlikely network of heroes, including an animal rescue organization in Utah, a civilian airline, an Iraqi family, and a private security contractor with military connections, Mama and Boris mad the journey form the streets of Baghdad to Carey’s suburban house. Carey’s mission garnered widespread attention and requests from other soldiers for help in bringing home dogs they had become attached to on deployment, and she continues to work with organizations dedicated to bringing home wartime strays.

This book depicts the mind of an abrasive woman that became increasingly worse as her life progressed. Honey Mae didn’t give a damn what people thought, black, white or otherwise. Honey Mae does what she wants to do, no matter whom she hurts; not even her only grandchild, Rheese, who just so happens to have dark skin.
