What a wonderful tribute to her grandson. Disa Van Orman has written a beautiful poem and pictures that celebrate her grandson’s life.

An amazing poem written in a wise child’s voice accompanied by beautiful images captured by the author and photographer herself. In the process of healing the pain of losing her grandchild, Disa, with the help of her grandson Dylan, has managed to put together a work of art to help heal anyone who has experienced a loss of a loved one. If you have lost someone and have had them visit you in your dreams, heard a song and remember a fun time with them, have actually heard them in your head advising you, then this is the book for you. The book raises the possibility that perhaps we are Spiritual Beings living on a Physical plane and we are here just for a visit. As for myself the book made me feel that I was so lucky and honored to have been chosen as one of the persons that my loved one’s wanted to spend time with during their visit.

For those of who have lost loved ones, this book is such a blessing to read. The photos and thoughts flow so well together that it tugs at your heart. My favorite is “look around and you’ll see me, I left a big mark.” That passage alone helped me feel all of my loved ones and how they are still with me. I volunteer at a hospice and highly recommend it.

“My Loved Ones Shines On! A Gift from Beyond” is a loving, simple poem from Disa’s six year old grandson just days after his passing. It is about life after death and how our loved ones are still with us sending us signs. Showing us through animals, nature and every day occurrences that may be ignored if not aware and being open to them. Softcover for children too. Also great gift for people who have lost their much loved animals. Amazing photographs accentuate the feelings of these comforting words.

Wonderful way to connect you to the afterlife, and the perception of. It truly feels like a 6 year old is speaking to you with words of spirit, wisdom, and simplicity. Fantastic for all ages…

I have not bought this book…yet. I was shown this book and had to move away to tune the world out so that I could to sink into each page. It is a book that I’m just about to purchase two of, one for me and one for a person who I believe will find these pictures and gentle words comforting. Odd, to do this in advance or a painful event? I don’t think so. Just knowing that it is tucked away on my bookshelf is comforting. My Loved One Shines On! A Gift from Beyond… is a perfect title.

This book really touches the heart and helps people who are experiencing the loss of a loved one feel that they don’t have to go through this alone. The book also provides hope and reinforces that our loved ones live on in our hearts, minds and surroundings. This is a wonderful book to give as a gift for people going through a difficult time.

A stunning book with a heartwarming message and beautiful photography. If you are looking for a gift to soothe a broken heart from the loss of anyone dear…this book deserves a closer look. Through the voice of a child, we are reminded that we all come from God and our spirits live on. Highly recommend!

A moving visual and poetic tale of continuing connection after a tragic death. Disa received the poem from her late six-year old grandson, added her photographs from years of world travel, and composed this fabulous book along with a profound aesthetic sensitivity and a gifted eye. The reader is opened, softened and left with a transformed vision of life after death and the real possibility of connection with those who have passed.
