FOR THE HOUR OF MY DEATH A Full Life Planner V. Telling of a Death
I came that you may have life and have it to the full. — John 10:10
Telling of a Death The news about a death is first entrusted to those most intimate with the deceased, as well as those who fulfill essential functions for the dead and the living. These concentric circles are organized ways of passing on feelings and facts; they then become involved in supporting and helping, usually through their direct presence and activity.
