Description
Death is a topic very few people want to talk about. However, it’s a part of life we all must face. Over my lifetime, I have been involved in hundreds of funerals. In this book, I explore the lighter side of dealing with grief and mourning through my eyes.
This book notes lessons learned, numerous death situations that can bring a smile to your face or even make you laugh, and show you how others have dealt with this period in their lives. I tell this through the lens of others who have experienced dealing with the death of a loved one. Whether you are going through a period of grief or looking ahead to the time when it comes, this book will help you see the many things involved and perhaps help ease you through the phases of grief.
If you ever need to read a book about death or mourning, this is the one to read. It offers humor, help, hope, and healing.
Review
“There are very few resources written by authors of African descent to address the enormous need of learning how to wrestle with Good Grief. Ed Mason provides a stellar resource to help communities of all backgrounds to face this inevitable challenge called grief.” -Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III, Senior Pastor, Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago, IL
“At first reading “Good Grief” was tough because I am one of those people who avoid the topic of death, but no more. I laughed and became emotional as Ed Mason dressed up the subject of death in the best way possible. The book was a page turner for me. It helped me prepare for what undoubtedly is going to come.” – Thurman Chisholm, retired educator and social worker, Chicago Public Schools
“Through the stories told in Good Grief, we get a clear picture that like our grief and mourning, funerals and Homegoing celebrations are as different as we are. I also appreciate the thought provoking questions that Ed Mason includes as well as the silver linings that he highlights throughout.” -Jenny Dilts, Founder of Grieving Coach and podcast host of Share Your Story: Exploring Humanity One Heart at a Time, Martinez, CA
