A Comforting Story About Heaven for Grieving Families
Have you ever wondered what Heaven might be like? It is the home where many of our loved ones have gone to live when we have had to say goodbye to them. Imagine someone arriving there and being able to send a letter back about what it was like! And maybe that someone was so special that God wanted her in Heaven a little earlier than usual.
Shortly after author Yvonne Riley Bonadio's daughter Yvette died on April 1, 2000—two weeks before her eleventh birthday—Yvonne began to find comfort in picturing her in Heaven and imagining her life there. In A Letter from Heaven, she describes how she envisions her daughter's arrival in Heaven and what she does while there, in the form of a love letter from daughter to mother.
