Dear Members of Fathers Forever,
My name is Alan D. Busch. I too am a bereaved father having lost my first-born son Benjaminin in an horrific traffic accident on November 22, 2000.
I’m addressing this note to members of Fathers Forever because I have written and published a book Snapshots In Memory of Ben which has been very well-received by hundreds of parents who have read it.
To read reviews of my book google my name or the title and you’ll find several reviews that speak to our issues of living without our sons and daughters.
If any of your members would like to receive a copy, I would be more than happy to ship directly to you by first class USPS. Your cost would be entirely up to you. The book was priced at $12.95 and first class shipping un the United States is $3.00, but like I said, pay what you like or please keep it free of charge.
Although we are aware that time does not heal all wounds, we do have our lives to continue living for ourselves, for our other children, wives and parents. My book will help you if you need the help; if not, you’ll benefit from the read in a myriad of ways. What they will be, I cannot say.
Give it a try!
Alan D. Busch
