[ note: My copy is from the original release date 2001] " 'till heaven, then forever" This is the story of Father Timothy Kavanagh and Cynthia Coppersmith's wedding. Those familiar with their love story know that Father Tim, pastor of Lord's Chapel had fallen for his neighbor hard, but at 60 something to really fall in love for the first time, and have it reciprocated, is a blessing. In typical Jan Karon style, she doesn't make it easy for this miracle to come about. We get to see through the eyes of parishioners and village residents just how Tim is loved and just how that love changes them and him. And this is a lovely edition to the Mitford Years. Highly recommended 5/5
