Publisher's Synopsis
Humor and somberness...the author presents a wisdom book that avoids the macabre and approaches death from a fairly light-hearted view. He shares wisdom from friends, the Good Book and sages through the ages about life, death and eternity.
One relative tells of a person's ashes hitting her face in real life just like in The Big Lebowski movie. The author shares why he almost died laughing when he was given the task of asking his wife's siblings where they wanted to be buried so he could inform the cemetery of their decisions.
Coffee cans with ashes in them show up two times, along with a snow globe and a toy closet. Statistics about deaths per year in the U.S. and the world are thrown in to bring some seriousness to the topic.
