Along the way, Lake of the Cedars reveals unexpected births and deaths, abuse and the will to survive.Lake of the Cedars also holds hope and redemption. Knowing family history is truly a form of therapy. It allows joy, pain, love, and faith to come through, touching generations now and to come. Family history helps us find our way through to the future and reminds us never to give up, knowing God will take care of us.
