In this remarkable collection of interviews with seven people who've died, Irene Kendig, with the help of a gifted medium, explores what happens when we transition from physical to non-physical reality. Each of the seven dialogues begins with the same question: What did you experience when you released your last breath on earth?
This book is for anyone has ever wondered whether there is a Heaven or a Hell, a Judgment Day, or a reunion with loved ones. It will illuminate and inspire your heart and mind whether you believe in an afterlife or not. These dialogues explore life from a spiritual perspective, which elevates consciousness and empowers you to make choices in alignment with your soul’s purpose.
The responses offered by Ms. Kendig's loved ones not only diminish fear of dying, they provide solace and strength for those who grieve, and inspire all to live courageously, joyfully, and respectfully . . . now.
If you are hungry for spiritual truth and meaning, this book is a banquet of knowledge, wisdom—and peace of mind.

I am grateful for this book."-Pamela Kribbe, Author of The Jeshua Channelings

Reviews
“Author Irene Kendig strikes gold while digging for answers about life from those who have lived, died, and are now ‘living on.’ It is impossible not to learn something about life from this book. Some of the revelations are startling, some are simple, some are complex, some are transforming, and some are comforting, while others are controversial and difficult to fathom. Almost every page of this book has decidedly profound insights to offer. Kendig's interviewing skills are incredible. Her questions are direct and weighty. Her writing is concise and cohesive. The book not only presents the reader with specific details about our transformation in death, it is also brimming with suggestions that can transform us into happier, more loving and forgiving people in life."-Claudia Pemberton, US Review of Books
“This is a book rich in thought and wisdom that makes the concept of dying not only a process to not fear, but one to anticipate." (5 star Amazon rating) -Grady Harp, Top 10 Amazon Reviewer
“This page-turner will warm your heart and stimulate your mind; both personal and metaphysical, each conversation will turn your thoughts simultaneously outward and inward. Fair warning: you may have a hard time putting it down!"-Julie Clayton, New Consciousness Review
"A 256-page compendium that includes an informative introduction, a 'Notes to the Reader’ section, and an Epilogue, Conversations With Jerry And Other People I Thought Were Dead features extended 'conversations' that touch upon a wide range of issues and questions.

Offering a wealth of spiritual wisdom, insights, and perspectives, Conversations With Jerry And Other People I Thought Were Dead is a fascinating and informative read which is strongly recommended for both personal and community library collections.” (5/5 star rating) -Jim Cox, Midwest Book Review
