Synopsis

As a bank executive, Herb Knoll was known as a man who could get the job done. But when Knoll lost his wife to cancer he found few resources that could help him recover. And the more he learned about the plight of widowers, from high suicide rates to physical and emotional problems, the more he became motivated to write a book with fellow widowers, for fellow widowers.

Knoll's The Widower's Journey tackles tough questions and provides advice on many topics, including:

how men can process griefkeeping healthy during stressful times managing a career while coping with lossdrawing strength from your faithreentering the dating worlddealing with the issues that sex, dating, and marriage createparenting as a widowersolving financial and legal problemspreserving your late partner's memory for yourself and for family and friends

Knoll breaks down barriers that block men in their journeys to recovery. He encourages men to seek out the fellowship of other widowers, and he provides resources that men need to move forward.

He also identifies how society fails widowers, and spells out how institutions need to change so widowers can receive the support they deserve.
