COVID-19 is devastating families around the world. Author, Lyle Benjamin has pledged to give away the book “Legacy Lifelines: Memorial” to every family that has lost a loved one due to the virus, creating a keepsake that brings lasting joy and happiness for generations.
New York, United States - May 24, 2020 /PressCable/ —
(New York, New York) Over the past three months, people all over the world have experienced unprecedented pain and grief due to COVID-19 and the pandemic. Amid all the heart-shattering events and stories, there is a common thread that runs through everyone touched by the virus: A profound sense of loss.
7.7 billion people on this planet collectively lost their peace of mind facing an uncertain future. For the billions of people experiencing shelter-in-place, they lost their freedom. Hundreds of millions have lost their income as their livelihood evaporated. Worldwide, tens of millions infected with COVID-19 have lost their wellness stability. Millions afflicted with mild cases of the virus lost their sense of wellness security. Hundreds of thousands of people sickened and hospitalized for days, lost any feelings of invulnerability they might have once had. And for the hundreds of thousands that died? They lost a future shared with loved ones.
Everyone has been “infected” with some degree of loss. But the people surrounding the smallest group are the ones that have been damaged the most. The survivors of the people that died are the ones whose lives are forever damaged by that loss. Over time, we can recover from financial losses. We can heal physically from many truly tragic events, but the pain and suffering we feel from the sudden loss of a loved one can follow us to the grave.
Lyle Benjamin, Author, and Founder of the volunteer non-profit organization, Planned Acts of Kindness (PlannedActs.Org), knows the pain and suffering families will go through from personal experience having lost his father, step-mother and sister in private plane crash over the Chesapeake Bay due to a sudden storm.
To help others better deal with the heartache, Benjamin has written the book “Legacy Lifelines: Memorial Special Edition” designed to forge lasting bonds between the living and their loved one by creating a keepsake that bring lasting joy and happiness to family members for generations to come.
Benjamin has pledged to give away the book for free to every family in the world that lost a family member due to COVID-19.
“People that have lost family have been absolutely devasted by this virus. My heart goes out to them. And if I can make their suffering a little bit more bearable by having them connect with the joyous times in that person’s life, we can help create a legacy that will live on for generations. And their pain can be replaced by tears of happiness when they revisit their loved one through the book.”
If you have lost a family member through COVID-19 or know someone that has, go to PlannedActs.Org on how to register for the free book.
“We are all in this together,” Benjamin adds. “We have one planet and one people on the planet. If we don’t start acting like it, Quality of Life around the world will tremendously different for the remaining 7 billion.”
Jack Canfield, best-selling Author of “Chicken Soup for the Soul” had this to say, “What you’re doing is great. I’m glad you’re taking on this project. We definitely need it. We’ve become so, let’s just call, divided in our country and when we are just talking being human beings, about solving problems we all share, it doesn’t matter what side of the political spectrum you’re on.”
If you’d like to have Benjamin speak at your organization or company, or you wish to volunteer, donate, or learn about the initiatives of Benjamin’s NPO, visit www.PlannedActs.Org or contact Robert Adamo (917 683-2625).
