Patti Harter

A Divine Transition is a true, court-documented story about an elderly, developmentally disabled woman, Marion Hume. The author, Patti Harter, was her guardian who unknowingly fulfilled the remarkable requests made on Marion's behalf by her deceased mother in a sequestered Last Will and Testament she had never seen. Partly autobiographical, A Divine Transition is poignant and heartwarming. It will leave you believing in divine providence and better understanding the metaphysical nature of the universe.

A Divine Transition is a heartwarming story about two incredible women. It is threaded with divine appointments as Marion Hume and her guardian, Patti Harter, journey home -- first to the apartment in Ballard and then to the larger Home where we shall all one day return. This is a story of compassion and kindness in a world where these attributes become harder to find and a lesson in facing obstacles with faith and prayer.
