A great concluding chapter. The characters reactions, I thought, were very genuine in the face of this unusual death.

Congratulations on completing this project!

Enjoyed.

Super ending to this story. A really emotional last scene there, with Lew on his deathbed, struggling to articulate his love for his daughter, his desire to die naturally in the hands of Jesus instead of going to NY and being studied for his brain. I love how you did the voice of Lew struggling to articulate the words in his stroke. It was really bold cap in your face writing and it put us right there in the room with them all. We get all the roiling emotions of the daughter and her friends, her dying father. And that dream like figure of Jesus seeming to reach out from heaven to take his hand and whisper comfort in his ear, close his eyes for the last time. It was all very moving. Overall a strong book and I wish you well with it. Can't wait to read your next project. All the best, estory

Always been a pleasure reading this most imaginative and profound of Christian, and displaying the love of God, that all of us must show for a lost world. We were born to selflessly display the love of God, who has displayed a love so amazing, to a world that's hurting for that love. Beautifully written my friend, blessings Roy

I am so sorry to see that it has ended. I loved the stories and the inspiration, and the love that Lew showed in every chapter. I cannot think of enough positive words for this review, Mike. It has been a treat. God Bless you, I think the story must reflect the man. Nancy:)

I'm glad you added that epilogue. If you ended the story with chapter 15 you would have left a lot of readers feeling sad and depressed. Honoring Lew's memory sure would help.

I think you did a good job wrapping things up with a positive note. I enjoyed reading this. I like the idea of a store existing to help those in need to stand as Lew's real influence. A suggestion for the last line:
Caleb smiles at Kathy. "Now, we can too."
I would punctuate it just slightly differently:
Caleb smiles at Kathy. "Now we can, too."
