What
others have said about Don't Buy Green
Bananas… A Humorous Journey through the Sometimes Puzzling World
of Aging:
“For
those who have not gone through the experience of taking care
of an elderly person, it will open a lot of eyes. The vignettes
in the book confirm Barbara’s professionalism and creativity,
but it is clear – the elderly have an advocate in Barbara
Hance.”
Dan Sullivan, Vice President
Northwest Community Bank
“This
book is a must read for those who are aging and those who have
to take care of aging parents.” “It has many wonderful
tips on how to deal with the process of aging.” “It
gives great guidance.”
Nuala Griffin, Real Estate Professional
"Your book handles the subject of caring for others as
well as the consideration of our own aging with a dignified
seriousness combined with the lightheartedness needed."
Linda J. Evans
"I've been reading, Don't Buy Green Bananas,
deliberately, in bits and pieces. It's a very special book.
I think every legislator, judge, executive, lawyer, doctor,
or leader who is worth his or her salt should be guided by your
"conservator" concept."
E. Thayer Drake, Retired Attorney
"Because of Lorna's (his wife) business, I
get to read (or at least encounter) more of these life enhancing
books that I might otherwise. They generally tend to be a little
too saccharine for my taste. Yours, however, possessed a refreshingly
sardonic sense of humor. That may keep you from ever becoming
a positively wealthy bore in the manner of the chicken soup guys.
But that's all the more to your credit".
Dan Riley, Editor and Writer
