User reviewsA great guide for a difficult time 
By James Halbach, Saint Paul, MN Funerals are never pleasant and never easy. When my father passed away, I knew it would be the first time in many years I would see certain friends and members of my extended family. There is just so much to deal with after a death between managing your grief and making accommodations for all the family members which will be visiting. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to really sit down and write a heartfelt eulogy for my father. A close friend of mine, who happens to be a minister, suggested the Baker’s Funeral Handbook. It proved to be a tremendous help. This handbook is full of prayers, religious sermons, and biblical excerpts which can be used when performing any eulogy or funeral. Anyone who has ever had to perform a funeral or eulogize a loved one knows how hard it can be. Even the slightest bit of help in those hard times is worth it and finding this book was truly a blessing.
