Practical halachic guidance and heartfelt support are exactly what a mourner needs during one of life's most painful times. Halochos of Aveilus, by Rabbi Shaul Wagschal, fills these needs by clarifying--in an easy-to-follow, organized fashion--all of the relevant laws, including:

The last moments of life
The funeral
Shiva
Shloshim and the year of mourning

Rabbi Wagschal also provides comfort and consolation when dealing with such difficult subjects as:

Does death have a purpose?
Why did this happen to me?
How can I help the soul of the deceased?
