Mary Roach Quotes

There, Just Beyond His Open Palm, Was Our Mother's Face. I Wasn't Expecting It. We Hadn't Requested A Viewing, And The Memorial Service Was Closed-coffin. We Got It Anyway. They'd Shampooed And Waved Her Hair And Made Up Her Face. They'd Done A Great Job, But I Felt Taken, As If We'd Asked For The Basic Carwash And They'd Gone Ahead And Detailed Her. Hey, I Wanted To Say, We Didn't Order This. But Of Course I Said Nothing. Death Makes Us Helplessly Polite.
