Allow your children to realize that even though their Daddy is no longer physically here with them, he will always be looking down on them, sending signs to remind them of his love. "Forever my Daddy, Always a Hero is the perfect book for surviving children. We lost our hero almost a year ago, leaving behind a four year old girl and one year old boy. Having a book like this will help in reminding our babies not only what kind of person their Dad was to everyone, but how much he loved them and how he will never be forgotten." -Emelie Nimtz, Wife of Deputy Benjamin Nimtz, Broward Co Sheriff, FL, EOW July 21, 2019 "This book had a smile on my face and tears in my eyes from the moment I saw the title and the Thin Blue Line illustration!! It is beautiful and perfect. I know this is exactly what my husband would tell our little girl if he could. Thank you for writing such a special book that will help our daughter understand that her Daddy is a true hero and that no matter how far away her Daddy is, he is always with her. I know this book will help bring peace and joy to our daughter's heart for years to come." -Catty Totty, Wife of Corporal Shane Totty, Baton Rouge LA Police Department, EOW February 1, 2019 "Wonderfully written book. It takes a concept that is incredibly difficult to explain and makes it more comprehensible for little minds, while also having a positive tone." -Brandi Hallman, Wife of Corporal Dale Hallman, Saluda Co SC Sheriff's Department, EOW April 6, 2018"Having lost my husband when our daughter was just six months old, this book was perfectly written and describes what you would want your young child to know about their hero Daddy. He will always be with her even if he is watching from above. --Katie DeRosier, Wife of Deputy Justin DeRosier, Cowlitz County WA Sheriff’s Department, EOW April 14, 2019 "This book kneels down to a child's level in order to say, "Your Dad was a hero, and you're going to be okay." That kind of empowerment is infinitely needed in a world and a climate such as this. Thank you." -Michelle Rebman, Wife of SC Trooper Keith Rebman, EOW October 24, 2017
