"What is your reason for being? What brings vitality and importance to your life? When your time on this planet is done, what will you leave behind? These are the questions asked of thirty-two people living in a small island community in the Pacific Northwest. Their answers, bravely spoken, strike a universal chord of contact. Speaking with deep integrity and unusual candor, these people help us connect with meaning in our own lives through the mirror of shared experience"--Flyleaf
