"Angel's Ladybugs is a book that will make a difference in a child's life---particularly for those who have lost a daddy or mommy in war. I found hope in Angel's discovery that her father loved her and would always love her. Read it once. Read it a second time."

It was their youngest son, George. He was killed in a car accident leaving their hearts broken. They struggle as they rush home to bury their youngest child. A silent long plane ride for them both as they held on to hope that it might be a mistake. They immediately lean on God and each other. Having the support of their church, neighbors, other family and friends, they manage to get through this as they search for answers.

After returning home they are forced to face reality.They immediately take their pain and turn it into a positive. They establish a scholarship fund in their son's name. They move forward working diligently to keep George's memory alive. Their faith in God has got them through it. The smile upon George's face leaves them with hope and comfort. They find peace through the gift of giving to other children.
