This book is filled with thought provoking passages as a minister describes her experience officiating at a funeral for a woman she never knew. The author discuses how death impacts all of us and how we are all dependent upon strangers in both life and death. Even if you're not facing the death of a loved one, this book may be helpful in making sense of life.
