Stacy Feintuch lost her husband to a sudden heart attack in 2011. He was 48 years old, she was 45, and their daughters were 10 and 12 at the time. In 2016, after four difficult years, she began to blog about her journey at The Widow Wears Pink. Since then, she has been published on sites such as Huffington Post, Today.com, Modern Loss, Scary Mommy, Grown & Flown, Thought Catalog, and many others. Her “day job” is Director of Client Relations for a financial investment firm, but writing is her passion. Her biggest success is her girls, and watching them grow into amazing young women is her greatest joy.
