Piece by Piece - Kim Danielson

If things are 'just things,' why does it hurt so deeply when we lose them? When a home burglary strips Kim Danielson of precious heirlooms and other special keepsakes, she loses more than the items themselves. She is also robbed of tangible connections to her history, and physical reminders of loved ones who have died - igniting grief both old and new. Feeling the weight of disappointment for future generations who cannot inherit a piece of her family's legacy, Kim creates a new and lasting heirloom, one that can never be stolen. Perfect for anyone who has ever lost anything of meaningful value, this book provides solace and a new perspective on material possessions. A practical template for preserving a legacy with or without artifacts, a soulful and heartfelt memoir, Piece by Piece offers a unique take on loss through the lens of stolen objects while inviting readers to tell the stories of their lives by telling the stories of their things.
