About this ebook

 "A Gift…Only Borrowed" is a compelling narrative of the recollection of what it is like to be a young father shrouded by the challenges surrounding his family's life during an extremely difficult time, the death of one of his children. 

Navigating the maze through the death of a child can be a bumpy road.  Those jumbled twists and turns are usually viewed through weary and teary eyes.  

Do I have all the answers to survive this journey?  I'm not even sure I knew all the right questions to ask.

You might be familiar with the destination, but might not recognize the trip taken, "One heart beat at a time."  

         "God doesn't promise us an easy journey…

…just a safe place to land."

Author

Kirk Spencer

I have ebeen married to my wife for over 40 years, have 2 grown children, and 7 grandchildren.  After retiring from over 50 years in the grocery retailing business, where I began as a bagger in a grocery store, moved into store management, became a grocery buyer, and finished my career as the president of a large food broker focused on retail solutions for my clients and a national grocery customer. I wrote this book 30 years after the birth and death of one of my daughters.  It chronicles all the challenges trying to navigate this journey. I have contributed short works for several years through the Warren County, Ohio Writer's Workshop and have been a reporter for the Warren County Career Center and Senior Center.
