When a loved one passes away, it is a time of darkness and mourning for those left behind.

Presented from the authentic Torah viewpoint and filled with chizuk and emunah, When You’ve Lost a Loved One will bring light and hope to those feeling bereft and lost in a world forever altered. In his soft and uplifting style, Rabbi Keilson transforms the year of aveilus to one of healing and comfort—for aveilus is very real, but so is nechamah. And there is room for both.

“I rejoiced when they told me that your precious sefer…to strengthen broken hearts with emunah, is about to come out.”

Rav Yitzchok Kolodetsky

“Harav Dov Keilson has taken upon himself to strengthen and give solace to people who have experienced sadness in their lives…the broken hearts of Klal Yisrael will gain great chizuk from this sefer.”

Rav Yaakov Bender
