It was the summer of 1991 and the weather was hot and still. Bernard and I sat in the shade of the back of our weekend home making small talk. We were at the height of our careers, prominent designers in the Canadian Fashion Industry, enjoying a fabulous lifestyle-dinners out every night, the finest wines, expensive watches, jewellery, and cars-everything one expects of a life of success. We were young, attractive and madly in love with each other. I made a move to go feed our dogs... Bernard went upstairs to shower... and died instead. It was the day that altered both of our lives forever. Written with the strong emotions of true love, this story takes you on a thoughtful, spiritual journey of love between two souls and a deep overall love of God. It is a story of life, absolute love, and immeasurable grief. If you had never known Shelley Wickabrod and Bernard McGee as a couple, nor felt the love between these two souls, this story makes you feel like you have known them all of your life... or possibly for many lives. -Katherine Goodes, Editor, MyEditor. ca This is a story of uncompromising and unconditional love... Shelley Wickabrod writes a compelling story that will touch us all. It reads like a movie. -Kirsten Scollie, Producer, Noumena Productions Inc. | Love Affair Before And After Death. by Shelley Wickabrod, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
