IT’S PAINFUL TO SAY GOODBYE. Most people don’t realize how much effort it takes to write something that is simple yet meaningful. Yet, the author of Winnie the Pooh, A.A. Miline, was able to communicate the meaning a message that readers at any age could understand. That is one of love, friendship, responsibility and profound loss.…
“They’re Gonna Lose Mom!!”
TRANSPORTATION OF THE DECEASED: That was my wife’s fear when her mother passed away in Florida. We needed to transport her up north for burial and we worried that she would get “lost”. My wife was sure that if the airline could lose her luggage, then they could do the same with her mother.…
