Book Description
Nothing is as it appeared to be! All of their lives the now grown sisters believed that their father was an alcoholic, their mother a long-suffering wife. Yet now, in planning their mother's funeral, Faith, Honor, and Chastity discover that much of what they believed about their parents and each other is untrue. Did their mother give them their burdensome names in order to please their rich, pious grandmother? And, if all that money existed, why was Chastity, the last born, the only one to attend college? In fact, where is mother's last will and testament, and can the sisters expect to share equally? This is the funny/sad story of competition, misinformation, and misunderstanding among siblings. It is also an insightful peek into America's funeral customs, and the “squeeze” that occurs when families, within a matter of days, must balance time, love, obligation, and money when Putting Mother Down.
