Peter’s daughter, Becky, died by suicide. Here, he shares the moving story of how he and his family are navigating her loss with the help of their faith

I am reminded of words attributed to Dante Alighieri: “Remember tonight…For it is the beginning of always.” For us, 11 October 2023 was our “beginning of always”. Like many who have lost loved ones to suicide, the date of their death is seared into the memory; a point in time so profound that all memories from before it have become our own personal BCE.
