About Susan Rose
I’m Susan Rose, offering support in School Counseling and Grief Coaching. In grief support, I’m a mother, grandmother, professor, author, and wife (I’ll always be his). Until October 20, 2020, I lived with my husband, Robert (Bob) Rose, in Louisville, Ky. On that awful day, my life profoundly changed, when my amazing man went on to Heaven. Married so young, we literally grew up together. We raised a family together and had a wonderful journey. We weren’t ready for it to be over! After Bob moved to Heaven, I embraced my love of writing as an outlet for grief. I know this is God leading me to honor Bob through using my background and experience to fulfill a new life purpose. Hence, this site is my attempt to share what I learned as a Counselor in education with what I am learning through this experience of walking this earth without him. My mission is to help those in grief move forward to see joy beyond this most painful time.
