ETIM Eternal Image Welcomes Author of “The Funeral Planner” to Club EI: The Eternal Image NFDA Trade Show Exhibit
Lynn Isenberg To Sign and Hand out Her Latest Seller; “The Funeral Planner”
FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Eternal Image, Inc. (OTC:ETIM.PK), a public company engaged in the design, manufacturing and marketing of brand image caskets and urns, today announced the special appearance of author Lynn Isenberg to the Eternal Image exhibit at the National Funeral Directors’ Association convention and expo in Las Vegas.
Isenberg released her second novel, “The Funeral Planner” in October, 2005. The fictional story is based on a young female entrepreneur who brings life to a dead business by launching Lights Out Enterprises for personalized end of life celebrations. The narrative follows protagonist Maddy Banks as she faces the challenges of accepting love, trusting faith and learning the true meaning behind a celebrated life.
“I think Eternal Image and Lynn Isenberg make the perfect match,” said Clint Mytych, CEO, Eternal Image. “The focus of her novel, “The Funeral Planner” reinforces our company’s mission to personalize the funeral experience.”
The inspiration for “The Funeral Planner” came to Isenberg during her own brother’s funeral as a renowned singer sang a cappella. The story took shape inside Isenberg as she was dealing with the loss of her brother and father. Not only did Lynn produce a novel through her grief, she also brought the novel-inspired business to life at LightsOutEnterprises.com, an event planning and tribute film company for personalized celebrations.
“I am thrilled to join the Eternal Image team at this year’s NFDA convention,” said author Lynn Isenberg. “I think we make a great pair because of our intentions to become innovators in the funeral business. What better place to show off the latest and greatest to the funeral industry than at the NFDA convention and expo.”
Isenberg will be signing copies of “The Funeral Planner” at the Eternal Image booth, #114 at the NFDA Convention in Las Vegas on October 8, 2007 from 3:00 to 4:30pm. On Tuesday, October 9, legendary baseball manager, Sparky Anderson will join Eternal Image for a meet-and-greet from 1:00 to 3:00pm. Attendees can have their picture taken with Sparky and try for their chance to win a signed baseball by donating to Anderson’s children’s charity, CATCH.
