My Chocolate Butterfly: Reflections on a Bike Trip from Lake Oswego, Oregon to Oswego, New York

By Ann C. Mulvany Caron

"My Chocolate Butterfly" was written by the author's husband, Dr. Paul P. Caron, and was the foundation for how they met in 1994. It is a story of community pride and working together towards a common goal. It also steps back to simpler times as her husband as a young boy recounts a special day on a baseball field, an encounter with a very special butterfly, and ultimately the purity and innocence of his Mother's love.
Ann thought it only fitting to have her husband's book published and for it to serve alongside her book as she travels her journey through the loss of her husband. Paul would be chuffed to know he became a published book author from Heaven!

Ann C. Mulvany Caron

Ann Mulvany Caron is an emerging author whose narrative, non-fiction book “Tough Enough. Strong Enough” chronicles her journey through living with loss and grief, renewing her faith, to finding the many gifts and strength in God. She will be expanding her writing to include children’s books and illustrations that she and her husband started one month before his untimely passing in January 2017. Before she started her writing career at age 53, she spent 20+ years running IT projects for major corporations. But after the loss of her husband, her parents, and her daughter-in-law all within 5 years of each other, she was called to a different path: to write and to share her story in the hopes of helping others through their own grief journeys. Ann lives in Upstate NY south of the Adirondack Mountains with her son Adrian and their two dogs Roxie, the protector, and Scout, the intuitive. She enjoys supporting her son’s baseball career and traveling to new places, and especially back home to Ireland.
