A Wife's Story...Many of us dreamed of the day we would meet "the one". We dreamed of all the fun times we would have and how everything would be perfect. Well, life isn't perfect. I met "the one" in high school, a wonderful, kind, and genuine man.

Angela’s Story
My name is Angela...and I am a suicide survivor. Unfortunately, my sister was a victim of suicide at the age of 19...she was (and still is) my best friend, by rock, and my strength. The day that my sister took her life, I felt as if she had taken mine too. Today I am taking a step to get it back, and to keep her memory alive by helping others.
