Diana Coogle returns as a guest to our pulpit to talk about her strong faith in nature as healer, companion, and spiritual center, and share readings from her published books, including earlier JPR commentaries, recent poems, and poems from her book about her late husband.

Old age isn’t easy, but it can bring heartwarming responses such as the kindness and love Diana depicts in her newest book, about the frustrations, celebrations and mistakes she and her siblings made during the last years of their parents’ lives. There is humor, too, as Diana looks at her own aging process.
