Theirs was a fairy-tale romance. Her husband, Trent, was Tammys best friend and business manager. While vacationing in Jamaica in 2001, a routine free diving excursion in the Blue Lagoon turned drastically tragic when Trent never resurfaced. Unfortunately, the following days events of 9/11 would create an incredible obstacle to Tammys and her familys efforts to connect and handle these horrendous events.

Tearful prayers pleading with God to make Himself real have been answered, and God is slowly restoring Tammys joy and hope, as she begins to sing and dance again for Him.

T HIS BOOK is dedicated to the greatest love my heart has ever known here on earth.

Trent, through the memories of your undying love and faithfulness to me, Im learning to breathe again, somehow, without you. I never got to say good-bye to you, and I will always hate that. So I hold on to the day when I will get to say hello again in heaven.

What is it like there, Trent? What are you doing? Each day that passes here brings me closer to the day Ill see you again. Dont forget me,Trent. Ill be there sooner than you think, and I promise well still be the best of friends.

Thank you for all you gave to me throughout my life. I will be forever changed because of who you are to me. I love you always.

Tammy, your girl

Trent at the Blue Lagoon

A FTER LUNCH we returned to the rental car so Trent could put on his diving suit. I waited while he sat on the car seat, his muscular, beautifully tanned legs stretching out through the door. He stuck one foot, then the other, into the legs of the stretchy, one-piece garment and stood up to pull it on. It fit his sleek, muscular body like a second skin, and once again I was reminded that I had married the worlds handsomest man.

With the wet suit half on, he reached for my hand (that was our thingwe held hands everywhere we went) and walked together down to the dock alongside Jamaicas spectacular Blue Lagoon, where he planned to dive. On the dock, when his well-toned chest and six-pack abs were about to disappear behind the full-length zipper, I couldnt resist the urge to capture the moment.
