It's Ok to Cry: A Widower's Journey

Grief does not follow a schedule. It does not move in a straight line. And it does not disappear simply because the world expects you to move on.

In It’s Ok to Cry: A Widower’s Journey, John Anno shares an honest and deeply personal look at life after the loss of a spouse—the shock, loneliness, memories, questions, and small steps that slowly become part of learning how to live again.

This is not a book about “getting over” grief. It is about giving yourself permission to feel it, carry it, and move forward without leaving love behind.

With faith, vulnerability, and practical encouragement, John offers companionship to widows, widowers, and anyone learning to navigate life after loss.

You do not have to be strong every moment.

Sometimes, it really is OK to cry.
