Book description
What would you do if, one glorious September morning, your husband
were to die suddenly, when all he had done was go to work, and you
didn t even wake up properly to say goodbye?
For Patricia, Julia, Claudia and Ann, four thirty-something women
whose husbands worked at the World Trade Center, this became a tragic
reality. But in the dark days following September 11th, 2001, the four
came together and found comfort in each other.
Love You, Mean It is a remarkable shared memoir of four
marriages, of how four hope-filled relationships were tragically cut
short, of how these four women rebuilt their lives after a deep loss,
but, most of all, it is an extraordinary testament to the power of friendship.
