About the Author:
Erika Dillman plans on living to 100, but started planning her own farewell fiesta at age 40 to make sure she gets the funeral she wants and deserves.

She wishes she lived in London and wintered in New Zealand.
Review:
"Erika Dillman's sharp and witty humor reminds us that death is a sure thing in this lifetime, and the more one prepares and shares their desired wishes, the more we honor our beloved dead in their final farewell." —Nora Cedarwind Young, certified death midwife, green burial educator, and hospice chaplain
"Erika Dillman has written a witty and humorous book on a topic that some people find fearful and morbid, and she conveys vital information in an easy-to-digest manner that includes humorous real-world examples." —Donna Belk, celebrant, home funeral guide, and board member of the National Home Funeral Alliance
"A fun read. . . . Dillman offers a wealth of information and allows the reader to choose his or her own farewell." —www.AmericanChronicle.com (November 2011)
