FAMILY UNITY BOOK PROFILE
The Russ Nelson Family's healing journey is a love story. It is recounted with an exuberant embrace of life and family interconnection in Magnificent Miss Mabel Our Pandemic Puppy. The idea of the book sparked when real estate executive Russ was grieving his wife Nancy's cancer death just as the Pandemic flared in fall 2020. He turned to his children and grandchildren for solace...who turned to a puppy....who helped them all co-create a book together to live in joy, gratitude and celebration, even amid loss.
