Author Description

"Peter Hoftsberger, a widower, floundered after the death of his wife of thirty two years. At fifty-four he was optimist enough to know that he had many more years ahead of him, or so he hoped. They were childless, and all of the loose ends were his to tie up or untangle. His mind didn't always focus because of the myriad duties recently acquired. He had never been handy in the kitchen nor had he been a planner." "Secretly, he admired his late wife for all the tasks she had routinely performed. Perhaps he should have told her more often of his respect and admiration."
