My fiancés brother passed away the other day. Is there a book I can send him to help him cope? (fiancé is in prison, not the brother)

You may want to review books by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross; here is the link to her website: http://www.ekrfoundation.org/ As far as I'm concerned she is the authority on death, dieing and the greiving process. Also, please go to your public library and ask what is available, they are up-to-date on new literature and can advise you on other authors/books that pertain to the specific situation.

My condolences on the passing of his brother

When my father passed, a friend gave me a book by Doug Manning called "Don't Take My Grief Away." It was really a comfort.

Amazon has it:

I hope it helps to ease his pain.

I also highly recommend the Kubler Ross book. You can also contact any funeral home and ask about grief counseling and recommended reading for grief counseling.
