How do you move forward after a loss?


This is Charlie's story. On October 26, 2021, Charles Martin Corvi was stillborn, just 15 days shy of his due date. When he should have been taking his first steps, opening his Christmas presents, and playing with his older brothers, Charlie's absence instead left an emptiness full of heartache. Charlie is not here to tell his story, so we must do it for him.


Dear Charlie... is a poignant collection of letters written by David, Charlie's dad, over the year following Charlie's death. It is a father's expression of never-ending love and a tribute to the son who will never grow up.


The letters serve as a record of the impact Charlie had on his family and as a celebration of how he has continued to touch the world. In this moving story, David teaches you how to:


  • Grapple with a complex tapestry of emotions, including anger at life lost mixed with joy for the legacy that endures
  • Navigate the complexities of grief, mourning the experiences that will never get to be shared
  • Learn to move forward in a loved one's absence while honoring their impact on your life

  • Discover your own healing through a father's journey of loss, grief, and remembrance
