Intangible Inheritance is the story of a godly man whose faith is infective and motivating, as well as a collection of a woman's fond memories of her life and her religious beliefs in God. Ellen Li Juan came to the US from mainland China in 1957. She completed her MA (Cornell University) in English literature. She was a devout Christian. At age 54, she died of liver cancer in Nashville, Tennessee. She was survived by her son, David Juan, who hopes and prays that those who read this book will be challenged by the existential questions his mother poses.
