After losing her only son, Mona Lovy shares the life of JR and the close relationship the two of them shared as she spent his final days with him. JR was a successful businessman in the fashion industry in late 80's in New York City when he learned he was terminally ill. Over the course of the next few years, Mona supported JR as he tried all the latest medical advances to treat his illness. In the meantime, Mona took on a new job within the JCPenney Company as President of free-standing furniture stores and was constantly reassured JR would be fine. Unfortunately, he lived a much shorter life than anyone expected. Over the course of five years following his death, Mona wrote this memoir as a part of her grieving process. A LEGACY OF LOVE is t only Mona's way of horing her beloved son, but a real-life testament of dealing with the loss of a child.
