Excerpt from William’s book, “At Heaven’s Door”

Long whispered about in the hospice and medical communities, these extraordinary moments of final passage are openly discussed and explained in “At Heaven’s Door”. The book is filled with powerful tales of spouses on departing this earth after decades together and bereaved parents who share their children’s entry into the afterlife. Applying vigorous research, Willian digs into the effect these shared crossing experiences impart - liberation at the sight of a loved one finding joy.
