Summary: Part A:Very few people in this country are comfortable talking about end-of-life issues, death, and widowhood. When this most transformative of life events eventually happens, how does one continue on past the lingering questions, the new plans, the change in perspective? One Foot Forward offers hope, solace, and the knowledge that you’re not alone. The insightful and powerful stories of the 20 widowed women and men in this book are woven together with beautiful portraits to document bereavement, acceptance, and perseverance in the face of the life-altering death of a spouse.Part B:For Stacy Horn, singing in a community choir is the one thing in her life that never fails to take her to a transcendent place and remind her that everything good is possible. She'll be the first to point out that she is not particularly religious and her voice isn't exactly the stuff of legend, but like thousands of other amateur chorus members throughout this country and the world, singing with other people makes her happy.
