We follow Gordon from his days working as personnel manager at in Washington, D.C.,

seminary. His journey then takes him to Northern Ireland where as an ordained priest

Throughout it all, Barbara pursues her interest in music and parti cipates in
choirs and chorales and makes her own eff ort in the church to bring people together.
Readers will laugh out loud at many of Gordons stories but they will shed tears as they
share those last days of Barbaras life.
