Forensic pathologist Janis Amatuzio has performed thousands of autopsies. She chose her line of work in part because it allowed her to help unravel the mystery of each person’s death. She found that by listening and talking to the loved ones of the deceased, she could offer them some sense of closure. In the course of her work, she has heard extraordinary stories from grieving loved ones, patients near death, police officers, clergy members, and colleagues — stories of spiritual and otherworldly occurrences concerning the transition between life and death. From the experience of one of her first patients — who on the day of his death told of being “visited” by a friend who had been dead forty years — to incredible coincidences — such as two daughters thousands of miles apart experiencing unexplained sensations at the precise moment their father passed away — Dr. Amatuzio began recording the stories she heard and filing them away. Forever Ours presents these heartfelt accounts and honors the mystery of life and death, exploring the realms of visions, synchronicities, and communications on death’s threshold. Told in the voice of a compassionate scientist and medical expert who sees death every day, these stories eloquently convey the comfort Dr. Amatuzio has found in what she sees and hears.

Between the covers of this book you will find stories about the cities within Anoka County tracing the people who once lived in them and the things that happened in them that have become buried beneath the layers of more recent events. The author started "digging up the past" in Anoka County when she was asked to be one of four contributing history writers for the Anoka Union Herald. Under the auspices of the Anoka County Historical Society, she published 79 columns between June of 2009 and June of 2016 when her last column appeared in that popular section of the paper. They are now gathered together in this book in a loose chronological order according to the present Cities of Anoka County in which the events happened and the people lived.
