"The Challenge of Living"
Maximum Living Bereavement Guide
Learning about death can improve the quality of your life. In essence, the goal of this bereavement guide is to enrich your life. All of us will anguish over death at some point in our lives and need to put this learning to work.
We suffer from ignorance, fear and misconceptions about death. Most of us have not considered how our own deaths would affect the lives of those we love: we have difficulty contemplating our own mortality.
In this guide we will explore death from our denial of death through the grief process and on to the transformation and shifting of our own values as we look at death to improve our own lives. Hopefully, this guide contains ideas to assist learning and growth for all readers.

“What Am I Going To Do With Myself When I Die”
Spring, 1998. The most controversial book ever to come out on death and dying. A book you must have.
Featuring:
- A more subtle theme of offering a definition of death through the process of “funeralization” that will have an appeal to the general public. There is nothing like it on the market.
- It includes a national survey of funeral directors conducted by the National Funeral Directors Association.
- In general, the book is a positive statement about funeral service in America. It also includes some “personal” observations from the author.
- Chapter #6, “Cremation: Learn Before You Burn” is awesome!
- It will be used for educational purposes, as well as, the general public.
- It offers some in-depth evaluations of major funeral service corporations that are buying privately owned funeral homes.
