When Sudden Loss Changes Everything
One phone call. One devastating loss. One mother's journey toward healing, faith and hope.
Austin’s Cabin is more than a place. It’s a story worth preserving. The book brings that story to life, sharing the history, memories, and people connected to the cabin and inviting you to experience its significance for yourself. Whether you already know Austin’s Cabin or are discovering it for the first time, the book offers a deeper look at the life . . . and death behind this special place and why its story continues to matter.

Meet Paulette
Paulette Reed is a mother, grandmother, friend, author, and teacher whose life has been shaped by faith, family, and a deep desire to encourage others.
For twenty-five years, she poured herself into education through teaching, travel, and leadership. Those years gave her more than professional experience. They gave her a front-row seat to people’s struggles, hopes, and questions, while deepening her belief that we are often called to walk beside one another through every season of life.
Today, Paulette’s days are centered more closely around family, writing, faith, and quietly coming alongside people who need encouragement. She understands that life can hold both deep joy and deep sorrow, and she writes from a place of lived experience, compassion, and hope.
Whether she is spending time with family, talking with a friend, teaching, or putting words on a page, Paulette’s heart remains the same: to help others know they are not alone, to point them toward hope, and to remind them that love is the greatest legacy we leave behind.
Her prayer is simple: to make heaven crowded and to use the life she has been given to encourage as many people as she can along the way.
Faith, Story & Legacy
ECCLESIASTES 3:4
THROUGH THE YEARS
THROUGH THE YEARS
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance.
There are seasons when tears come easily and seasons when joy returns like morning light. God is present in both the mourning and the dancing, the hurting and the healing. As we walk through each season with Him, even our deepest pain can become a source of compassion, hope, and encouragement for others.
