Product Description

Product Description

Celebrity undertaker Barry Albin Dyer’s warm and endearing insights and anecdotes will give you a helpful understanding of death, and guidance on how to prepare in advance both for the funeral of a loved one and for your own ‘final departure’.

Mixing practical advice with fascinating true stories, Barry demonstrates that the mourning of a death can also be an opportunity for the celebration of a life.

Includes advice on making a will and arranging a funeral.

Albin and Sons in Bermondsey, South London, one of the country’s oldest family-run firm of funeral directors.

He is also the sole European agent for Detroit's controversial Cryonics Institute.

I have read all of Barry's books and had the pleasure of meeting the man himself. He has a way of imparting the lighter side of undertaking, his stories are gems. I cried from laughing!
