Hello again!  It’s Ryan and Natasha.  Today we will discuss section 1.

Summary:
Comfort is just a normal girl except for the fact that she lives in a funeral home and sees dead people almost every day.  But it’s all right with her because as you can already tell, she’s happy with her life and couldn’t be feeling any better.  But soon her Uncle Edisto dies and so does Aunt Florentine.  They were the two relatives that Comfort was very close to.  That’s when it dawned on her that death was actually a sad thing; especially when it happens to people you know.  Comfort wasn’t a huge mob of just sadness all the time, but she got a little sad as she grieved to her relatives.

Respond – How would you deal with death if you were in Comfort’s position, living in a funeral home? Would the cruel grip of death eventually be able to scratch its way into the center of your heart and toy with you emotions? Or would you be strong-willed just like Comfort?
