Monday mornings for most folks involve meetings and paperwork, but for Sarah Jones it involved the worst day of someone else’s life. From stillborn babies to one-hundred-year-old grandmas, a peaceful passing to a horrific homicide and a lot in between. What is it like to be alive while constantly dealing with death? Jones’ collection of essays and poems reveal the lessons she learned about being alive from those who are not and how working in the death industry shaped her everyday life. Written with deep introspection and a surprising amount of humor, Living Life with Death offers a unique perspective and a lesson for all readers.
