Had a lovely morning with members of the Rochester teachers organization
on East Avenue...had about 25 folks listening to a few stories... and asking
lots and lots of questions, not only about the book, but the funeral industry
in general. Thanks to Sheila Harp pictured with me here.. she was the
gal who put the day together...met some nice people in the flower city.
It amazes me when I'm with a group... I always ask if they know a funeral
director personally, casually, etc. Ninety percent usually respond in the
negative. I'm always suggesting that a person get to know a funeral
director ahead of time... it makes things much easier when a death
actually happens.... so if you don't know one...go out and seek!
Clergy, friends and neighbors can usually make a recommendation.
You have a doctor, a dentist, maybe a vet, a mechanic, a plumber...
it makes sense to have a director on that list as well.
It's old school by me, and
Next month: Lyons N.Y. public library... am looking forward to it!
