'This is forever; you will always be able to open this book and see a family member or trigger a memory.' ♥
"This is forever; you will always be able to open this book and see a family member or trigger a memory. [It's] something positive," said Vernell Miller.
Vernell's grandson, Jarrell Tucker, 13, is featured in the cookbook. Angels in the Kitchen features 32 recipes from families who lost a loved one to a violent crime."It's an outstanding way to keep the memories and spirits of our loved ones alive," she said. It's been nearly 10 years since Tucker's death. His killer has been charged and convicted in the case."It's a reminder of what we've lost, and the tremendous potential that our community has lost," said Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears.
The recipes inside are all the favorite dishes of all the victims — everything from dinners to desserts. "It's bigger than a book. It's just a small way to show our families that we care for them, that we think of them in this way," said Claressa Patton."I remember when my brother got killed, I thought this is the worst thing that could ever happen to a person ... then 57 days later when my husband got murdered, I thought I'm never going to say anything is the worst," said Patton.
