As painful as it must have been to Roman Dial and his family, how much better to die young having lived a life filled with excitement and adventure than to grow old never having lived at all. Truely inspirational! With love and admiration from Mississippi

Wow, what a life lived. If only we could all have parents like you were to Cody. Listening to your book now in Texas. Thinking what a loss but a testament of love too. He lived the life you taught him and what a gift. What an adventurous life for you all. He died doing what he loved. Thank you for sharing your life love and loss. Hugs to you and your family.

Hello, I am just listening to your book and can´t turn it off. My heart is full of sorrow at the pain you must have felt and still feeling. Thank you for sharing in your heartache and telling it all. Maybe that was a healing process for you. With much sympathy, Chris from Pine Valley California

I just finished your book and my heart was with you and your family ! What a remarkable son! Bless you and your family .

A short life so beautifully lived. May your memories and the love of your family and friends carry you through those times when you miss him the most deeply.

Dear Roman and family,
I recently read your book and have a son and daughter as well. In fact my son and I recently hiked rim to rim at the GC. I was so touched by the heart of your family and want you to know even now I am praying that God has healed the hurt and flooded your hearts with rich memories. Many blessing to you and those closest to you.
