Description:... This booklet invites us to examine our attitude towards death, and discover that taking death on board enhances the way we live our life. As people of faith, specifically the Catholic faith, several practical considerations arise: the sacrament of the sick, the processes of dying and preparing for death, final care, arranging the funeral, and grieving all are carefully addressed. How we live all this depends greatly on how well we have come to terms with the fact that one day we will die.
