Inhaltsangabe

Violet Ryder was 95. One day she stopped eating. She and her family knew something was wrong. When her doctor told her she had inoperable cancer, there was nothing to do but wait for the end. In this beautiful tribute, Violet's last days are chronicled in photographs and text, just as the story unfolded for her children, grandchildren, and friends. Violet - Last Rites describes not only Violet coming to terms with her mortality and spirituality, but is also filled with remembrances of a life well-lived. Violet - Last Rites has a universal message. Death takes us all, but it doesn't have to be a tragedy. It can be a celebration of life.
