A Widow's Walk
Author: Marian Fontana
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439128367
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
On September 11, I dropped my son off at his second full day of kindergarten. The sky was so blue it looked as if it had been ironed. I crossed the street, ordered coffee, and sat to wait for my husband to meet me. It was our eighth wedding anniversary and Dave and I were about to begin a new chapter in our seventeen years together. Sipping coffee, I watched as a line of thick black smoke crept across the sky from Manhattan, oblivious to the fact that my life was about to change forever. On September 11, 2001, Marian Fontana lost her husband, Dave, a firefighter from the elite Squad 1 in Brooklyn, in the World Trade Center attack. A Widow's Walk begins that fateful morning, when Marian, a playwright and comedienne, became a widow, a single mother, and an unlikely activist. Two weeks after 9/11, the city attempted to close Squad 1, which had suffered the loss of twelve men. Known for her feisty spirit and passionate loyalty, Marian, who was still reeling from her profound loss, began to mobilize the neighborhood to keep the firehouse open. From this unlikely platform the 9/11 Widows and Victims' Families Association grew. Over the next twelve months, Marian struggled with the tragedy's endless ripple effects, from the minute and deeply personal—she wonders who will play Star Wars with her son, Aidan, and carry him on his shoulders; to the collective: she works to get families and widows necessary information about the recovery effort and attends private meetings with Governor Pataki, Mayor Giuliani, Senator Clinton, and Mayor Bloomberg. Through it all, Marian's irrepressible humor is her best armor, as well as evidence of her buoyant strength. Written with great heart and humanity, A Widow's Walk is a timely opportunity for remembrance and a timeless testament to love's loss and the resilience of the human spirit.

Pages : 239
Book Description
In the Aftermath The Camarilla lost much ground along the East Coast in its recent war with the Sabbat. But the sect claimed one of the greatest prizes in the world control of New York City. Of course, the Camarilla was never entirely absent from the city, but in recent years no clan held so firmly there, among the enemy, as did the Tremere. Now the story of their covert activities and greatest victory is told. New York, A City Teetering on the Brink A fledgling prince restlessly pacing the battlements. A Tremere novice walking the razor wire tightrope. In the wake of the Camarilla liberation of New York, the real battle is just beginning. A floodtide of refugees, immigrants, opportunists, prospectors, pariahs, carpetbaggers, Anarchs, pioneers and outlaws washes over the city—each of the newcomers intent on carving out his own piece of the blood-red Big Apple. Everyone has a dream, or at least a scheme. Antigone Baines thinks of herself as the veteran of many lifetimes. There is a trick to picking your way along the Widow's Walk—the treacherous precipice between the quick and the dead—and dancing away again, unscathed. A magic of names. Among the halls of the Chantry of the Five Boroughs, Antigone is usually called Novicia in accordance with her rank in the steel-jawed hierarchy that she has come to know as the Tremere Pyramid. Sometimes, in scornful whispers, they call her Jackal, because that is her job: Pyramid security. Like Anubis, the laughing, jackal-headed, warden of the dead, Antigone keeps careful guard over the house of the undying. She cannot, however, anticipate that her job is about to become rather more complicated.

Walk With a Widow Empower. Educate. Prepare.: A Guide to Launching the Walk With a Widow Program

Book Description
Walk with a Widow was founded with the purpose of equipping the church with tools and resources to provide much needed immediate and ongoing support to a new widow. Our mission is to empower widows, educate non-widows, and prepare married couples for the inevitable. In the early days of widowhood, a widow needs other people to come alongside her and help with any emotional, spiritual, and practical challenges she encounters. The people around her, including the church, find themselves ill-equipped to help her; hence, they stay away. We educate non-widows on "what to say" and "what not to say"; we give them tips on how to understand a widow. We also provide practical resources that can be used to help widows. By educating non-widows, we enable them to empower widows and we get them to a place where they are not as uncomfortable around the subjects of grief and death. Lastly, we understand that a lot of widows and widowers would find themselves in a better place if they had taken the time to have the difficult conversations about death and widowhood. We provide conversation starters, discussion points, and practical tools for financial/legal matters. Starting these conversations early in a marriage, and continuing them throughout the course of a marriage allows a couple to be more equipped mentally and emotionally to make end-of-life decisions. Our Guidebook also offers resources and tools for married couples in respite care; we believe it is wise to walk alongside a person caring for a terminally ill spouse and then transition into walking with the widow or widower. Our Guidebook offers suggestions on how to set up a core team within the church which will coordinate assistance for a widow using the already existing ministries in the church. We give tips on how to set up boundaries, how to avoid certain pitfalls, and how to circumvent certain challenges in showing care for a widow. We hope and pray that our resources allow a church to take seriously the biblical mandate in James 1:27 to "care for the widows and orphans". Our desire is to see the church be the hands and feet of Jesus in the hurting world of widows. Cynthia Mascarenhas was widowed on February 4th, 2018, when she lost her husband of 29 years, Franz Mascarenhas, to a sudden heart attack. She met her husband in Bombay, India, fell in love, married and remained in love through the challenges and blessings of marriage. They successfully raised their two daughters in the fear of the Lord. Professionally, Cynthia is a Registered Nurse and Independent Legal Nurse Consultant. She has served as a member of the Board of Directors of the Greater Orlando Chapter of Legal Nurse Consultants and on various committees for the American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants.
