ANSONIA - I met an inspirational and courageous woman Sunday at First United Methodist Church.
Invited guest Alison Miller addressed our congregation and spoke about her mission to spread a message of love everywhere she travels.
Miller, who recently moved to Ansonia, is living out the dream she shared with her late husband, Air Force Master Sgt. Charles "Chuck" Dearing. They had been married for 24 years when he passed away on April 21, 2013.
Their dream was to hit the road and travel the country to promote a message of love - and they did just that for 4-1/2 years. "We kept driving and driving," she said. "We talked about everything."
Before Chuck died, Miller promised him she'd stay on the road and keep his legacy of love alive. She is planning to embark on a cross-country trip in May.

This is the pink pickup Miller is driving these days. It's covered in the names of lost loved ones. I was honored when she asked me if I wanted to add my late husband Ralph's name to the vehicle.
Miller poses with two new admirers after her presentation.
I recommend readers refer to Miller's online presence to learn much more about her interesting life and to enjoy her thoughtful writings.
I'm looking forward to following her on her future adventures!
