Graves into Gardens: A Story of Love, Loss, Hope and Laughter

When Tara Claassens was thirty years old, her dreams of being a wife finally came true. She, and her new husband, both felt blessed and grateful for how their lives had turned out, and excited for the future.

Fast forward twenty-four hours after their wedding ceremony, the groom had passed away, and Tara was now a widow. Over five years and an intention to heal through journaling, retreating, Facebook posting, reading and traveling - she undertook the most incredible adventure in healing, evolving, growing and becoming. This beautifully heart breaking story takes you on a journey of grief, loss and everything in between. Through both laughter and tears, often simultaneously, Tara invites you on a path to truly understand the blessing of living each day as if it were your last.
