What others are saying about Shadow's Story

“You’re Back!” Tail wildly wagging, joyful jumping, and loads of licks— these are all easily-understood loving welcoming-home communication from our furry family members. But, how do our pets communicate loss? Over the Rainbow Bridge-and Back! provides heart-warming insight of dealing with and communicating loss of a loved one via human and beloved pet experiences; and along the grief journey, opening of mind and heart to receive the beautiful awareness of spiritual connection with a deceased loved one. Gordon’s shared perspective of his true-love, the equaled intensity of Shadow’s communicated loss, and the enlightenment and joy of each other’s spiritual connection with their loved one are all elements of this must-read book; a valuable gift to one’s own journey with love, loss, and beyond. ~ Jane Andrist; Fellow Friend, Dog-Lover, Believer.

"I rate this book, Over the Rainbow Bridge—and Back, five stars and a must-read for anyone who has suffered the loss of a loved one. I was pastor and personal friends with Gordon, Maddi and yes, even Shadow. The three were inseparable and the bond they shared was obvious to all who knew them. When Maddi transitioned it was not only a great loss to Gordon but to Shadow as well. I think you will find the grieving and healing process that both Gordon and Shadow have journeyed through to be a valuable resource to draw on when you experience the loss of a loved one way too early. What stuck out to me as I read the book was the Spirit and the heartfelt healing being imparted to the reader coming through the process that both Gordon and Shadow experienced. I highly recommend this book, especially to those who have suffered the loss of a valued love one."~ Don Keathley, Founder and President of Global Grace Seminary
