The Life of Widowhood: Living in the "Death Do Us Part" and Honoring the One Who is Gone.

10/30/2020

Nancy Emsley, Charlie Boulais, Dr. Christine Bacon and Mark Carscallen in the WKQA studios after a very engaging conversation on the life of widowhood on the Breakfast with Bacon show.

When we marry we all want the fairy tale but all fairy tales must come to an end. When we pledge at the altar "until death do we part" we never know who will be the one parting and who will be the one left behind. Widowhood isn't easy but to avoid the pain would have meant missing out on a lifetime of love, memories and lessons learned from the one whose flesh eventually became your own. Listen in to this beautiful testament to marriage by three individuals who loved until the end...and would do it all over again.

We are proud of our men and women in Blue and are grateful they've lent their voices to the conversation on this very important topic. So we ask that you pray for them and show them your support in other ways. Drop off a card or treats at the station. Tell an Officer "Thank You."

After nearly a quarter of a century in uniform, Officer Sean has seen it all. There are dark days where the things he's seen have left indelible marks on his soul and there have been good days where his time in uniform has born good fruit. He's changed many lives but has also been changed as well. Twenty-five years later and he said he would do it all over again. Listen in as one of our nation's finest shares how faith, family and community support sustain him every day he puts on his uniform and his life on the line.
