The answers are never easy. Well-known author Jim Harrison once wrote: "It only gradually occured to me that are wounds are far less unique than our cures" Live Like Line / Love Like Ellyn faces hardship, wounds, and solutions head on. During August, 2011, Ernie, Gregg, and Catharine Found are faced with heartbreak and tragedy. Seventeen-year-old Caroline Found, aka Line, doesn't survive a moped accident. Twelve days later Ellyn Found loses her battle with cancer. They aren't the only ones in mourning. Caroline was a much beloved student at her high school and captain of a volleyball team set to win a second state title in a row.
