Jo-
I wanted to let you know that recently my mother-in-law visited with her childhood friend, Kate. Kate picked up my copy of Good to Go and immediately was captivated. "Wow, I need this!" she exclaimed. Just having celebrated her 70th birthday and with three grown children, she realized it was time to get started getting things in order. "This book is so easy to read, well written and full of so much useful information, where can I get a copy?" Before she left to go back to Maryland, we made a special trip to the Tattered Cover for her "airplane reading." Soon Kate will be "Good to Go."
-Pamela McNeill
"This is a gem of a book -- Elizabeth Kubler-Ross meets Erma Bombeck! Jo Myers brings a refreshing approach to what can be a difficult subject, gracing it with humor and appreciation for the trials and tribulations families experience coming to terms with the end of life. Astute, insightful and filled with humor and warmth; Good to Go
is a book you will want to share with just about everyone."
