Helping Survivors Manage

It has always struck me as odd when re-sellers purchase larger quantities of merchandise and get a lower price; they fail to lower prices for their customers and pass along the savings. With the sales of the book, I have had to order more, which is great! This time, I ordered twice the quantity of the first order. Because the cost was lower per book, it is only reasonable that we lower our prices and stick to our commitment of really wanting to help survivors manage…and save them money. Peace…

A letter, entitled “For the grieving” appeared in the Pioneer Press after the story that Mary Divine wrote was printed. I was touched by it and wanted to share it parts of it with you. The author Kathryn Abram of Lakeville, describes her husband’s death 2 1/2 years ago. While she thought she was prepared for the changes to her daily life and the paperwork she would face, she discovered she was not. Like many survivors, she found overwhelming grief made even the smallest decisions nearly impossible.

Kathryn says ends her letter by saying, “How nice it would have been to have such a book. How nice it would have been if the funeral home, in understanding of this difficult time, had such a book to offer me as part of its package. How nice it would be, now that such a book is available, if funeral homes would recognize what an invaluable service they’d be doing to provide this book.”

Thank you, Kathryn, and I am sorry for your loss…

This past Sunday, I had the privilege to speak about the book at the First Congregational Church of Minnesota in Minneapolis. They requested that I talk a little about the book during their “End of Life” discussion following services. It was interesting to hear the comments and see the faces of those who have been through what I have, you really can see it. I think it may be similar to what it is like to be a parent; unless you are one, you really cannot comprehend its impact. One of the comments that I continue to hear from survivors, to quote Gilda Radner’s book “It’s always something”. There is always something that will be necessary to handle that you will never expect. And there are things that seem to take forever to complete. It seems like one cannot really move forward unless all is settled, and sometimes it takes years to settle something related to a death. There’s always something…else to do…patience is key. Peace…
