Highly recommended reading - reserve a solid 36 hours of a weekend, as you'll only put it down to catch some sleep! This is very well written. I recently lost my 20 year old nephew and met Sukey through his father.
I found her story of loss so poignant at a time when my family could use a glimmer of hope that there will eventually be a way to move forward with life. I would especially recommend this for someone who has experienced the loss of a child as the author has.
Loss knows no socio-economic boundaries. One person found this helpful. I could not stop reading this book. While certain aspects of Sukey Forbes life experience may be hard for many readers to relate to, her book is about a very human experience that may be deeply felt.
The sudden loss of Forbes' six year old daughter sends her on a gut-wrenching, heart-rending, transformative journey to find life after death. Forbes' account is moving and inspiring, with a fascinating family history - she is a descendant of John Murray Forbes and Ralph Waldo Emerson - in the background. With some narrative inconsistencies and redundancy, her honesty is both flawlessly compelling and admirable.
I felt just utterly heartbroken for the author I am fascinated by the authors ancestors which drew me to the book. I felt just utterly heartbroken for the author after losing her daughter to a genetic disorder. Great memoir about not only loss but trying to reconcile the past and move through the future. This book, Angel in my Pocket, is a must read. The honesty of the grief, emotions, and yes, sometimes humor in Sukey's story can help anyone move through the process of the Unthinkable When your life comes to a complete halt.

Published on November 2, Published on September 15, Published on August 7, Totally looks at loss Published on July 29, Published on July 27, Published on July 1, Whitehead, ex- Marine , bricklayer , and recent seminary graduate, is ecstatic to receive his first "calling," or assignment as Pastor of his own church. But the Church of the Redeemer in Wood Falls, Kansas , will prove a challenging assignment and nearly his undoing.
The trouble begins almost immediately after he drives into town with his family. A political rally connected with the upcoming mayoral campaign has erupted into a no-holds-barred, knock-down, drag-out brawl , which the sheriff will not stop. Sam attempts to intervene and succeeds only in getting struck in the face, so he drives on to see the church.
There he learns that the church sorely needs major renovation, which has not been done in decades because the two founding families, the Sinclairs and the Greshams, have been running a feud for decades and cannot agree on the simplest decision that would benefit the church or on anything else, either.

Worse yet, Sam delivers his first sermon by preaching against physical violence—only to discover most of the brawlers in attendance, including one who blames him for making him vulnerable to someone else's assault. Thereafter Sam spends most of his time trying to improvise to provide for the church needs, speak out on various problems in the community, and, ever more frequently, to run interference between the Sinclair and Gresham families.
Each of these endeavors brings him trouble. First, his project to secure a new organ for the church leads to a confrontation with the church board when two town gossips witness him obtaining the organ from a house of Burlesque. Sam's brother-in-law, called "Bubba," offers to help the caretaker repair the superannuated boiler —but unknown to Sam, the two men turn the boiler into a still and start producing raisin jack, a variety of moonshine.
Next, he takes his children out of school after seeing the appalling conditions there—which prompts his Bishop to warn him not to interfere in town affairs. Finally, he performs a marriage between a Sinclair and a Gresham—and when the secret gets out at a church social after "Bubba" spikes the church punch with some of his raisin jack , Sam must physically restrain the heads of the families from brawling in the church fellowship hall, and then send everyone home.
Not long afterward, the Bishop informs him that he is removed from his pastorate. In one final attempt to save his situation and the community, he persuades his one remaining friend, Attorney Art Shields, to run for mayor as a write-in candidate , with the election two days away. That leads to a confrontation along the main street among three different political parades , including Art's.
Then the church's old boiler explodes, and the church burns down to its foundations as a result—and the attempt by the fire department to fight the fire turns pathetic when the fire hose springs multiple leaks.
