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.

Divorce, the termination of marriage, currently affects approximately one out of two marriages in the United States. There is no guarantee for those attending church required marital preparation classes or by celebrating a religious ceremony that the union will not conclude in the tragedy of divorce. As the Church lists marriage as a vocation (a call from God), it is quite evident that in many cases God is not a part of the lived out experience of many married couples. Though much literature has been written on this topic, December Roses details the thought processes associated with the planning and execution of a divorce and the painful emotions and feelings which occur, while at the same time providing a means of prayerful healing for those involved in the divorce situation. Divorce touches many issues and feelings. As marriages die and friendships are broken, the pain cries out for healing. Pastorally, through case study, reflection, and prayer, the issues inherent in any divorce are brought forward to the healing movements of God. As a priest for twenty-six years, I have witnessed, counseled, and cried with family, friends, and parishioners as divorce took its toll on very good people. This book is written with the faith that God is greater than our human moments of grief. Through God's compassion, healing is possible.

QUITE BY CHANCE… Eleanor not only remembered the domineering Fulk van Hensum from her childhood, she recalled how much she had disliked him. Now Eleanor was grown-up and a qualified nurse, and suddenly Fulk, a renowned consultant, was back in her life. He hadn’t changed a bit—he was still dictatorial and overbearing, which was a problem, since under the circumstances she couldn’t avoid him! It shouldn’t have mattered that Fulk was engaged to the lovely Imogen…but somehow it did.

"...life is mocked by death, and we are the fools." --Justin Chance Is this the despairing conviction of an eighteen-year-old boy haunted by personal demons pursuing him as he runs from a tragic past? Or were these words uttered in ignorance of the real demons seen by supersleuth Benjamin Wade as the Baby-Boomer parents of Michael Weston and Michael's betrothed Erin Jennings. When the friendship of Michael and Justin metamorphoses into romantic love before the fireplace on a snowy Christmas Eve, their lives suddenly change forever. Michael, a successful software entrepreneur at the young age of twenty, must now choose between Love and Love and can only watch helplessly as his world begins to collapse around him. A story of two boys who are coming of age in a Baby Boomer-dominated society and who find themselves suddenly faced with all the great questions humanity has perpended for millennia--questions about love and life and fate and who we are as participants in the social order, indeed as members of the human species--it is an indictment of the Boomer generation and the world that generation has created. As Michael and Justin struggle to understand the great personal and societal forces bearing down heavily upon them and to do what they each believe in their young minds is the right thing under impossible circumstances, their superior intelligence can find little guidance in the accepted wisdom of their country. A cast of colorful characters animates a story of deep emotion engaging the reader, a story whose suspense rivets as it builds toward the dramatic climax.
