Even though I probably won't be a grandmother for several years, I have been blessed by messages in Loving Legacy. There is always a nugget for me to use as a mother and teacher. Moms and teachers can share a Loving Legacy with all our kids too. It's a perfect gift for a new grandmother, but you don't need to wait until you're a grandma to read this book!

#1. Its so nice to be able to buy a book of this calibar for a reasonable price. #2. The book cover is so attractive, and I love the size, small and compact. The inside format is excellent, can be read easily and swiftly, on a daily basis, almost like a devotional.#3 I know Ramona personally and know many of the people in this book and know their stories to be true. There is even one of mine artfully written. Ramona is one of those rare individuals who knows how to get along with all types of people and leaves them feeling better about themselves. I've watched her spend years, taking weekends off to go visit one of three grandchildren, each every two months, Now that is wisdom. They're grown up now and she is very special to them, because she took the time and sacrifice of air fare to spend time with them.#4. AT age 65 I am just about to be a grandmother for the first time, and I eagerly read every page of Ramona's book to get ideas on how to be a grandmother, and especially a long distance one.#5. It is a pleasure to know Ramona and I'm so pleased she took the time to write Loving Legacy to inspire others.

Prayers from the heart of the author went straight to mine.

If you have a loving grandmother, had a loving grandmother, or want to be a loving grandmother, this book is for you! After the birth of my daughter, I began to wonder how I could learn to be more like my wonderful grandmother. Set up with daily meditations, this book could be my daily instruction manual. By the time I really am a grandmother, I hope that I can emulate even a portion of the love and compassion demonstrated in this book. Beginning with the scripture, a short message concerning application of that passage, and ending with a heartfelt prayer that goes straight to the very heart of the reader, this book offers encouragement for every range of human emotions. This is an author who has lived and loved--and lived and loved well. As I read each short passage, I become 'hungry' to hear more about each 'story' presented on each page. If I could have a criticism of the book, it would be that it is too short. I want to know "the! rest of the story." Since my grandmother is no longer with me, I miss her very much. Once again, I feel that I am listening to her and have her close to me as I read this book!(And I can't wait to try the recipe from the book for the 'Cookies To Die For!')
