About
Carole Schossow was born in Maquoketa, Iowa. Carole was born into a loving, Christian family. Her father, mother, five sisters and three brothers have all preceded her in death.
Although she enjoyed a long career in the banking industry, Carole has enjoyed this mission of writing poetry at this stage of her life as, “icing on the cake”.
The love of her life, Pastor Lyle Schossow, now deceased, is the greatest inspiration for her writings. Lyle’s true commitment and service to God, and her commitment to God, as well, make this journey one of great passion for her.
God has given each of us a mission in life. It may not come until we are much older, as mine has, but I am so thankful to Him for this blessing.
As my late husband would say, “Keep the faith!”
Story Behind The Book
Carole’s poems took a different turn with the passing of her husband and the grief which she personally experienced. As God’s vessel her wish is to share her experience of God’s comforting presence to others who have also lost a loved one, assuring them that His comfort is there for them if they will only turn to Him.
