ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, we sit at Liz’s sunny dining table, where an unexpected and beautiful conversation unfolds. She tells us about her mother, Mary Ann Shaffer, the librarian who, in her final years, co-wrote The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and passed away before witnessing its success.
Liz also shares the story of her husband, a Vietnam veteran who died from Agent Orange-related cancer.
What emerges is a portrait of love, loss, and the quiet legacies we carry.
