Review of Dealing With Loss


While looking for an answer to one of life's great questions "Why do people have to die?" Krystle Murray ends up talking to her mother, a funeral home director and a teacher to try to make sense of the death of her cousin. I liked the piece because it was real. It made me remember the pain of losing people and how it doesn't ever really make sense. The topic of death and grief is an always relevant topic since people die every minute.
The feature itself could use some tweaking on the reading of her commentary, though there weren't any major issues. She had audio from a funeral home which I thought was a very original place to look for answers when talking about death. She also used a great combination of personal narration, interviews and music to bring the listener though her journey to find answers.
The piece is overall worth a listen for anyone wanting to hear about dealing with loss.
