About  the Author  Sandra Hatfield is a National Trainer with The Twilight Brigade Compassion in Action, a National training organization teaching people how to “be there” as a volunteer for the terminally ill and their families. This organization was founded by Dannion Brinkley, best selling author of “Saved by the Light,” “At Peace in the Light,” and “Secrets of the Light.”  After completing the required training she started as a Hospice Volunteer and then accepted a position as a Hospice Volunteer Coordinator. To date she has trained over 800 people in this field both with hospice and as a National Trainer. In 1988 Sandra received her certification as a Behavioral Therapist using hypnotherapy, working with a number of clients. Sandra has also put together and conducted a class called Angelic Connections, a 6-week course teaching people how to get in touch with their own personal Angel, as she does.  The subject of death has always held a fascination for her and she has done a lot of reading and research on the subject.  Losing key members of her family at young ages is what led her to Dannion Brinkley’s organization, and a lot of self-discovery.  Sandra and her husband Bill (retired USAF), have lived in many States before settling in Georgia.  After raising 6 children, now grown with children of their own, they have settled down with 2 dogs and 2 cats, spending what spare time they have motorcycle riding with good friends.   Sandra may be contacted at angelconnection@windstream.net
