Definetely a tear jerker...

I teared when I read parts of the book, but it is such an awesome book! I didn't want to put that book down until I was completely finished reading it. I definetely recommend it to anyone with children. I loved it, and I plan on keeping up with my letter box to my son.

A wrenching story of love beyond death

Mark and his wife wanted a family for years and were filled with joy upon discovering they were expecting triplets - but when the dream was ruined, Mark faced an empty future. His container for collecting thoughts and feelings became gifts which included his friends and anyone who knew him. The Letter Box is a wrenching story of love beyond death and the recovery process, and is a highly recommended pick.

Moving

Picked up an autographed copy of this book for Mom for Christmas. I was bored later that day and started reading it and couldn't put it down. I cried and smiled and in the end, was inspired to create my own letter boxes for my loved ones. Get this book!

Very Moving...An amazing story!

Dian and Mark Button have written an extremely rewarding story. The most amazing part is that it is true!I believe books, like people, can come into our lives at certain times for a reason. This is a book that showed up and changed my life. It is a story that is as good as any intensely romantic novel. And.... the book offers a path that can change your life, and the lives of your ancestors, for generations to come.Page by page, Diane and Mark share a story that is a keen, honest observation of their struggles, pain, joys and humanity. Although I read it in one sitting, it is a journey worth savoring because the final destination is worth it. I highly recommend it.

The Letter Box

This is an exceptional love story. It's like the Bridges of Madison County, only better because this story is true. And it tells us a process that can affect and change those lives around us. By writing letters and telling the ones we loves the importance of their lives in ours, we are creating bonds and memories that will last for generations. I can't wait to start doing this with my own daughter.
