Grief and Bereavement Support with R. Glenn Kelly


Meet R. Glenn Kelly - The Broken Road Traveler

As The Broken Road Traveler, R. Glenn has had his share of life's traumas, hardships, and grief. A previous career placed him where he constantly witnessed, first-hand, man’s ghastly and unspeakable inhumanity to man, and in ways that deeply scar the psyche.He's survived spousal infidelity and horrific emotional abuse in one failed marriage and an unwanted divorce in another. Along with demoralizing career interruptions, he lost both of his parents far too soon for him, and far too young for the both of them.

Then, in the year 2013, he unexpectedly lost his beloved teenage son and only child to a rare congenital heart defect. Absolutely nothing could drop one to their knees more than this. With all that and more, had he not detoured from his broken road for a time, he would’ve surely crashed and burned long ago. Thankfully, at each rest stop along his life’s journey, he's found comfort in faith, hope, and wisdom.

“Not since I read the book ‘As a Man Thinketh,’ by James Allen, circa 1890, has there been a comparable book for today's world, in today's language, with the same provocative insights and allegories of resilience that are embedded within its pages.”

Grief Books by R. Glenn Kelly3. THURSDAYS IN THE GROTTO: An Inspirational Story About Going Through the Fire

Your Destination? What If You're Already There?

Two angry men on opposite journeys of both fate and faith collide...

...Aiden Huff, a grieving, vengeful lawman who's surrendering himself to an unforgiving wilderness. He knows that the spirit of Mother Mountain can make or break a man. And with the recent death of his son and the hell that followed, right now he'll accept either fate from her. 

...and Danuwoa Ross, an escaped death row murderer who hopes to avoid surrendering his life to the laws of both man and God by hiding away in a high mountain cave...as a relentless federal manhunt closes in.

Is it destiny, or simply chance that brings these two anguished souls together? Either way, the better question might be who brought their better angels?

Mitch Carmody - Founder, Heartlight Studios
"R Glenn Kelly is a consummate and prolific writer who breathes life into into his characters in such a way that you become part of their story. He weaves empathy and hard knock life logic into an amazing inspirational tale of resilience that is fraught with challenge. Although it is challenge that is overcome by grace and collected wisdom. Brilliant book, and a unique resource in overcoming challenges and extracting a firm resolve to face each new tomorrow with an anticipation of joy. Regret can be a catalyst for hope or a fuel for failure. Our choice. Thanks Ron for what you do for so many."

Lawrence Indiviglia - Best Selling Author and Personal Coach

"R Glenn Kelly is one of the finest writers in being able to "write what he feels" with eloquence, compassion, emotion and endearment. "I feel what he writes" in his beautifully written books on the existence, presence and challenge of grief in our lives, and how to embrace it and live on. Mr. Kelly brilliantly shares his creative talent in "Thursdays In The Grotto" where you will discover the meaning of life, and love and loss through the character of Aiden Huff. Mr. Kelly juxtaposes spirituality and reality as dual forces of the human condition that ultimately redeem one from pain and suffering. We all need to identify and seek out places from which blessings emanate and where we can nourish our souls. Such a place exists when you read "Thursdays in the Grotto."
