Alternative Funerals
Jean Francis

UK Price £13.99         $15.95 in US 

Time to Go reveals that funerals can be celebratory, unique and very personal and yet be very spiritual and dignified affairs that need not, but may, involve a funeral director or a priest. The most environmentally friendly funerals are green burials, which take place on private land or in woodland burial grounds; but there\are many methods, including burial at sea. The author explores many alternatives with practical guidance.

About the author

Until recently Jean Francis owned her own catering company, co-ordinating the many different occasions that mark life’s milestones such as birth, marriage and death.  Jean was inspired to write this book following some very moving funerals she herself attended.   She realises that these occasions do not have to be merely an event to “go through” but can provide a real opportunity to give a very personal tribute to the deceased and what their lives stood for.
