Over Our Dead Bodies (undertakers lift the lid)

Over our dead bodies (undertakers lift the lid)
Authors - Kenneth McKenzie and Todd Harra

Their second book, over our dead bodies, is a perfect sequel to their first book, mortuary confidential (undertakes spill the dirt). Its just a good. Filled with stories to make you feel more comfortable about death. You get to read what really happens to your earthly remains after you pass away. There is even a story told from Louisiana, near Lafayette (where I live), so I have a soft spot for that particular story. But if you havent already, I would definebtly check out these guys books! Amazing! 5 out of 5 stars!

Mortuary Confidential

Mortuary Confidential
Undertaker's Spill the Dirt
Authors: Kenneth McKenzie and Todd Harra
"As unpredictable and Lively as a bunch of drunks at a New Orleans funeral." - Joe R. Lansdale

I found this book as I do many. I browse paranormal books on Amazon. When I read what this book was about, there was no way I could pass up reading this one! I ordered it right away! 

This book contains a bunch of short stories written by different funeral directors and explains the everyday struggle, and sometimes even funny, situations they get into. As strange as this may sound, to me, this is a super comforting book. It explains things that many of us are curious about regarding death and what it takes to make the dead look presentable during the wake / funeral. It comforts me to know that when that time does eventually come for me or a loved one, I know whoever is taking care of the death, will be knowledgeable and someone just like me or you. I think that funeral directors, or anyone in this line of work, get a bad rap. They are people and they make mistakes. This book really does "put the fun back in funeral". 

5 out of 5 stars! 

Great read!
