This is a book by J.I. Packer. Anything with his name on it is golden. I will be adding it to my library. It includes a journal of Richard Baxter on the loss of his wife.

Thanks, Jonathan. That one looks great. Several others that may find of help are 1) A Severe Mercy, by Sheldon Vanauken (not sure if I spelled the last name right) (this one is about a young man and his wife who become Christians in part through their friendship with C.S. Lewis - you may not agree with all the theology, but it is from a young man's perspective, as he learns to see God's hand in the loss of his wife) and 2)The Problem of Pain and A Grief Observed by C. S. Lewis ( C.S. Lewis lost his wife Joy to cancer - the movie Shadowlands is based on his story, but the book is much better) and 3) Bold Love, by ??? - I can't remember, but I think it is published by NavPress - ( this one is about how God's love is manifest to us for the purpose of sanctifying us and how we can show this same love to others).

Bold Love is by Dr. Dan B. Allender & Dr. Tremper Longman III.
