Join Jennie and Dianne on The Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery podcast as they welcome Amy Shea, author of the groundbreaking book 'Too Poor to Die: The Hidden Realities of Dying in the Margins.' Amy's work sheds light on the often-hidden truths of death and dying among those experiencing chronic homelessness or who end up indigent or unclaimed at the end of life.

In this powerful conversation, Amy shares her insights on the intersection of poverty, dignity, and death, drawing on her research and personal experiences. From the importance of witnessing and activism to the need for greater awareness and advocacy, Amy's book reminds us all that "Death may be the great equalizer, but not all deaths are created equal."

'Too Poor to Die: The Hidden Realities of Dying in the Margins' will be available for purchase nearly everywhere books are sold beginning Tuesday, September 9, 2025, but you can pre-order it here: https://amysshea.com/book-ordering/
