Episode description

In this episode I answer a listener email question regarding death visits.

No two death visits are alike, so in this episode I try to cover some of the basics. 

I cover some of the following topics.

  1. Call the funeral home as quickly as possible
  2. It’s not about you
  3. Don’t always be in a hurry to interject yourself
  4. Be sensitive to other cultures
  5. To stay or not to stay
  6. Post mortem care
  7. Clothig

Then I finish the episode telling several stories from my own experiences and some of the things I did well, and some of the things I didn’t do so well.

==============================
As always, don’t forget to call, text or email to leave feedback! I would love to hear from you!
