Craig is originally a Melbourne boy, but moved to the Gold Coast for the weather and family. Between them, they have four beautiful children, and family life is at the centre of everything they do.

Two years in the making, this book is the culmination of a long journey of writing, reflection, and creativity. Each page is a testament to Kate and Craig’s commitment to their craft, and to their unwavering desire to create a book that provides comfort and solace to those who have lost loved ones.
