Testimonials From Readers
An excellently told story
What would you do if you had another chance to fix past mistakes? To go back in time? Would you be teachable? Would you be grateful? Would you take personal responsibility?
In this book , we experience the worst thing that could happen, the death of a beloved one, that could have been avoided by a few changes in lifestyle, and, the relief of a chance to go back in time to change the future, or better than that, a journey to put you on a path of a better life with advice for moving forward.
Of course, we can’t change the past, but if we follow these guidelines in this book, we just might make our ending legendary, to those who matter the most, ourselves and our loved ones.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did. An excellently told story with present scenarios, a bit of nostalgic past times, and a hopeful future, we can all gain something from this book that’ll set us up on a path to success.

Truly Made Me Think!
DID I TELL YOU I LOVE YOU TODAY? truly made me think! So often in our newly married years we think only in the moment. As we age, we look back and wonder what would WE have done differently? This could have been a “quick read” if it hadn’t made me think back. So many challenge2 Columns for the characters but so well written I felt I knew each one.

Highly Recommended!
I really enjoyed reading this book. I’ve known Rory and Zelia for 50 years. I have witnessed the struggles he has gone through, especially with Zelia’s health issues. I honestly don’t think I could have handled it. I’ve seen Rory grow stronger as a person through the years because of the struggles he’s faced. They have made him well qualified to talk about the principles he describes in his book. We would all be wise to apply these principles to our own lives. Highly Recommended!

A truly Inspiring Book!
“Did I Tell You I Love You Today?” is a truly inspiring book. Rory Graham touches on an aspect of life that nearly everyone can identify with: the desire to go back in time and change things for the better for ourselves and those we love. Even though we can’t actually go back in time, this book provides us with time-tested advice that can powerfully guide us into our future. The lessons are universal and beneficial to people of any age or station in life. I give this book my highest recommendation.
Ken Morrison - Graham, NC
A Most Interesting Concept
Oh! What a love! Such sorrow, grief, and desperate wishes. That’s what I read in this fiction writing. Also a most interesting concept. All of us, (if we live long enough) have had a painful experience to live through. I believe, we would like to go back and have a redo. However; what a mess we might make for others.
So read, enjoy and have your own “Jake” fantasy experience. It could be fun to think like “Jake “!

Outstanding – A Good Read
Well written, interesting story line, compassionate love story. The thoughtfulness of Jake and love for Anna is a tear jerker. Anna faith in the Lord and the strength she displayed during her illness is very uplifting.
Transition from 2022 to 1980 was outstanding keeping the reader riveted with Jake 2.0 in a Jake 1.0 body. How he convinced his father and lovingly explained his situation to Anna. Not revealing too much, his interaction with his son Shawn is heart warming. His commitment to help his mother and Anna through his “Random Thoughts”, in his journal are words to live by for anyone looking to get ahead.
Again his Transition “BACK TO THE FUTURE”, was seamless, well thought out and keeps the reader riveted. Overall all a page turner and a good read.
