A postcard from heaven is not a revelation from on high—rather, it is a whisper, a brush of the presence of someone who’s passed away. Though subtle, these coincidences are uncanny enough to suggest that they come from the spirits of lost loved ones, and they have a deeply comforting effect.

In the tradition of Tuesdays with Morrie, screenwriter Dan Gordon shares the uplifting and poignant story of a remarkable family and how they remain intertwined in one another’s lives even after passing to the other side. Introducing us to four colorful generations of strong Jewish characters, he describes the funny and touching ways in which family love travels across boundaries of time, space, personality, and even death.
