She Was Married For Almost 50 Years, And Then She Had To Continue Life Without Him

Xulon Press presents one woman's grief and healing journey.

KERRVILLE, Texas, Sept. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Author Veletta Butcher testifies to God's love through grief in A Widow's Uninvited Journey & Her Treasure Box Of Memories ($22.49, paperback, 9798868523342; $9.99, e-book, 9798868523359).

Butcher was not politely invited to join the widowed community -- she was initiated by force, and her life changed dramatically. Even so, her God did not change, and He reminded her that she had a treasure box full of memories that she could hold onto forever.

"When I lost the love of my life I realized how devastating the grief journey is, not only for widows but for anyone who has experienced the death of a loved one. There were so many changes in my life at that point, but God showed me that there can still be hope and joy if we trust Him," said Butcher.

Veletta Butcher, married for almost 50 years, has been widowed for over a decade and knows the deep grief of the loss of a spouse. She has been involved in the GriefShare program for several years, and through the program has been helped and learned to help others dealing with grief and death. Butcher is also the author of 50 Year Old Love Letters: A Two-Fold Love Story and Crumbs From The Master's Table.
