Summary

A tender meditation on what it means to live fully, told through the lens of loss and love. Kelly's friend Christine Carter shares the eulogy she wrote for her father Tim—a man who turned everyday moments into acts of devotion and found humor even in hospital rooms. Through stories of midnight baby feedings, homemade lattes for gardeners and gratitude spoken with final breaths, we discover how one person's way of moving through the world can illuminate the path for all of us. This is a celebration of the ordinary magic that happens when someone chooses love over fear, laughter over complaint and commitment over convenience—a reminder that how we live echoes long after we're gone.
