Heidi Jones: Choosing Forgiveness After Tragedy

On October 15, 1985, Kathy Sheets returned home from her morning walk and noticed a small package on the driveway.

Kathy's daughter, Heidi Jones, struggled following her mom's passing with bitterness and deep grief but on today's episode, she shares how a decision to forgive made all the difference.
