Initial Launch of Wife, Just Let Go in SE Portland, OR 9/24/2017

HEARTFELT THANKS to all who came to our book event on September 24^th, 2017 at the Ford, Food & Drink Café in SE Portland, for bringing your friends and buying a book. Becky Doggett's café turned out to be such a great venue for a book signing event. "Wife, Just Let Go,” Robert Briggs’ last words and the title of the book (recommended by Steve Arndt), has now become another vow in my remaining years for, as Robert knew, “letting go,” is indeed, a true way to freedom and peace.

In the making of this book, I was generously and brilliantly assisted by Christine Toth, the best writer and editor I could ever wish for, as well as Noah Devros, who couldn’t be at the event but was wonderfully represented by his parents. So many to acknowledge with gratitude for years of loving support, and you know who you are. Last night’s tribute to Robert was a success because of you. Special thanks indeed, to Stuart Fessant, Tim DuRoche and Andre St. James, the three musicians who played for Robert in his jazz and poetry readings. True to their nature, they came to honor the occasion with their superb improvisations of jazz and kept us all delightfully entertained. Thanks to Laura Stanfil, Portland’s own amazing publisher/writer, for your presence in the event and giving me such a lift with your positive comments.
