In this episode, Luge Hardman shares candidly and openly, life after the loss of her beloved husband Paul. Luge wrote a book titled Life After Loss: Adjusting To A New Reality which is an anecdotal look at the loss of a spouse through the eyes of friends. It tells the story of how they are dealing with loss, living with the pain, and adjusting to a new reality of being alone after years of marriage.

She now serves on the board of the Missouri Route 66 Association and is active in planning the Centennial celebration of the “Mother Road,” as a member of the Governor’s Route 66 Centennial Commission.
