And We Fly Away

This is the moving story of the punishing, yet extraordinarily graceful, final years and death of the author’s wife. Ashford’s own emergence from sorrow is marked by the conviction that death is not the end, but a marvelous beginning. This poignant work will speak to the hearts of those who are coping with aging, Alzheimer’s, and bereavement. Ashford tells his story in spare, poetic prose and includes a “mini-anthology” of helpful quotations from scripture and literature.
