In My Son’s Back Yard An Eagle Sits Atop A Tree & Spreads His Wings

By Kat

My true writing career began thirty some years ago while going through a valley, alone. I’ve come to believe that we all have a purpose in life, our path to walk.

Now that my middle son Chad Engstrom died on October 14, 2014, the rest of my life is not lived for myself, but to leave his legacy, not only because he was my son, but because of his beautiful soul.

May God guide me…. For our earthly selves are far from perfect, but may we be perfect in His love.

Dear Kat,

This is one of the most beautiful tributes I have ever read. As a mom my heart breaks for you. There are no words for me to make it easier to bear, but I do hope the Good Lord gives you the strength to move forward. Please know I think of you often and pray for you daily.

Thanks Pat,

I always appreciate you and your prayers. There really aren’t words to stop the pain because losing a child is such a life-changing event, and what happened to Chad hit with such vengeance it feels as if the universe was knocked off balance. Right now it feels as if there is no way back, but I have to say, it does help to hear from friends and family. Love, Kat
