Emily's Plan with Anne Murphy

Anne Murphy, a home vigil guide, death educator and celebrant, describes what it was like to be invited to participate in the planning of Emily's home-based after death care, the vigil, memorial ceremony and subsequent green burial in a casket made of sea-grass. Emily's four year old daughter, with the loving support of her father and community, found her own way into every aspect of caring for her mother after her death.
