Still His

One Widow's Journey to Discovery and Hope

Tragedy has a terrible way of hitting when one least expects it. This was the case for Roni Hollis, a small-town Missouri teacher, a wife and a mother, when her life changed forever on a normal December day. When a work-related accident killed her beloved husband, Mike, Roni found herself in the throes of grief and depression. She was left with bills she couldn’t pay, a farm she didn't know how to run by herself, a ten-year-old son to raise alone, and a heart completely shattered. Relying on her faith in God and believing in her ability to rise from the ashes, Roni found within herself a strength she never knew she possessed. She became determined to survive a loss like none she had ever known, and to do so with grit and grace. Not a widow self-help book, Roni's story is simply the shared experience of a young widow who thought her life was over the day her husband died. Her raw and honest writing will carry you with her on a journey of love, loss, and eventually, of hope.
