Overview

This is a newly revised edition of the humanist funeral service that has been indispensable to all those eschewing religious services for some 70 years. First published in 1940, ""A Humanist Funeral Service"" has been indispensable ever since to all those not wanting a religious funeral services. Now, from her own experience as a humanist chaplain, Beth Lamont, widow of Corliss, has added two new scripts of humanist services, and warmly welcomed a new updated edition (to her late husband's last revision in 1977) by humanist J. Sierra Oliva, who has added new emphasis on celebrating the deceased's life in these suggested scripts for last rites. In the quest for solace at a time of grief, readers can turn with confidence to this non-religious service to address all the needs of the deceased, their family and friends, and other mourners.
