Acknowledgments
First and foremost I have to thank my agent, Kathy Green, for her constant support. Without her belief in the project, it would never have come to fruition. And, of course, I need to acknowledge my editor at Llewellyn, Angela Wix, as well as Kat Sanborn. They, too, believed. And I thank Hanna Grimson for a masterful job at copyediting.
Five people also offered their advice, careful edits, and constant encouragement. Dr. Charles Corr has been my mentor and friend for almost forty yearsover half my life. I often wonder if he ever realized he would be my foremost editor for all those years. I need, as well, to acknowledge his faithful wife, Donna, for her years of friendship and support. As I indicate in the introduction, Dr. Terri Daniel has been instrumental in this project. Not only did she elicit my initial interest, throughout the writing process she, too, offered edits, comments, and most importantly, a foreword. Larry Laterza is my oldest friendliterally from second grade. He not only strongly encouraged this book but also assisted with his comments and edits. And another of my oldest friends, Lynn Miller, through many years, encouraged me to nurture my interest in this fieldsharing her remarkable experiences in her journey through life.
My many colleagues in the Association for Death and Counseling (ADEC) and the International Work Group on Death, Dying, and Bereavement (IWG) also provided constant support and friendship through so many years. At the risk of leaving off some critical names, I do want to especially acknowledge Thomas Attig, Leslie Balmer, Robert Bendiksen, John Birrell, Phil Carverhill, Betty Davies, Stephen Fleming, Chris Hall, Neil Heflin-Wells, Nancy Hogan, Terry and Gail Martin, Robert Neimeyer, Danai Papadatou, Colin Murray Parkes, Van Pine, Therese A. Rando, Henk Schut, Sherry Schachter, Kathleen Shears, Margaret Stroebe, and J. William Worden for all the stimulation and camaraderie contributed over so many years.
My college, now sadly closed, was a beacon of support throughout my years there. While there are so many colleagues I can recognize here, Marie Ribarich, Wendi Vescio, Joe Biscoglio, Diane Lewis, and Vera Mezzacuella do deserve special mention. As do three others: Claire Lavin, Dennis Ryan, and Lynda Shand. They all shared my interest in end-of-life. In fact, Denniss work on dreams is noted in the book. But all three contributed support, stimulation, and companionship throughout my decades at the college.
For almost thirty years, I have had the privilege of being a consultant to the Hospice Foundation of America (HFA). This has helped me professionally in so many ways. Each year, preparation for a new teleconference and accompanying book continues to make me stretch my professional knowledge. In addition, I have enjoyed the professional stimulation and personal friendships of so many wonderful people I have met there including the late Jack Gordon, Myra MacPherson, David Abrams, Lisa Veglahn, Norman Sherman, Lindsay Currin, and the rest of the HFA staffpast and present. I have to give special thanks and mention to my often-collaborator and co-editor and always friend: HFAs CEO, Amy Tucci.
