Lorilyn Shares Short Anecdotal Stories

Last updated on July 10, 2025

 
Enjoy this twelve-minute video I put together for a special event of the Writer’s Alliance of Gainesville. I read a short excerpt from my newest book, Tails and Purrs for the Heart and Soul, and more. 
 
Get ready for heroic acts of devotion, devilish entertainment, unexplainable coincidences, and bold inspiration. From a special four-legged childhood friend to the newest Humane Society adoption during the coronavirus lockdown, Lorilyn reveals the deep and profound bond between animals and her family. As in her award-winning memoir, Children of Dreams, Lorilyn unearths spiritual truths and biblical insights to answer the question many have asked, “Will we see our furry friends in heaven?”

This wonderful book of pet stories had me thinking about the ones I have had. From my first pony who I named Pet, to my childhood dog Cinnamon, through my numerous sheep, goats, hogs and cattle I showed in 4H, my ponies Brownie, Squirt and Ginger that lived long enough for my son to enjoy, my Black Lab mix dog Max who I enjoyed for almost 12 years and who helped me through my divorce, to several special sheep and goats, I look forward to seeing them all in Heaven. In the meantime, I will give dogs Dusty and Roxie, 7 barn cats, 2 horses, 2 ponies, 4 of the 11 goats (the others couldn’t care less), and a few of the 26 sheep some extra love and attention.

    After some cyber glitches I was able to watch the full video. Thank you for the Aaronic prayer from Numbers 6:24-26
