"Mom, we really need to finish that book,"my eighteen-year-old son, Rom, said. "We will. School's almost out. We've got time before you leave for boot camp." The book was important to both of us. We'd started a journal when he was ten, struggling with harsh realities-his father in jail, and Rom not feeling accepted in a new step-family. The words became his voice--a blessed echo of his heart and humor. But he didn't finish it. Rom died four days after high school graduation in a tragic car-train accident. Now, after years of grief, his mother, family, and friends are sharing their memories in hopes that others will find comfort in their journey, and enjoy the valuable insights found in Rom's precious thoughts.
