Letters

THANK YOU FOR Julie Polter's article with information on alternative and low-cost funerals.
THANKS FOR Julie Polter's excellent article about the high cost of funerals ("We All Have to Die," May-June 2000).

FINALLY! DUANE SHANK'S article "A Path Between the Extremes," (March-April 2000) says what I've been saying for years. You can teach about religion without proselytizing.

I'D LIKE TO RESPOND to Bernard Cullen's letter ("Giving Our All," January-February 2000) regarding my article "Life on the Auction Block" (November-December 1999).
