Author's Synopsis

This short story of around 1,400 words was written especially for those who have lost someone they deeply loved--especially during the month of December when it's difficult to generate JOY like everyone expects. It is a profoundly sad--but uplifting--true story.

CHRISTMAS WHISTLES won the Military Writers Society of America's 2011 William E. Mayer Award for Literary or Artistic Excellence. 

Events detailed in the story also became the catalyst for the award-winning novel, YOUR GIFT TO ME by Bonnie Latino and Bob Vale.
