08/31/2004: "Vale Elisabeth Kübler-Ross"
Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, psychiatrist and prolific author of the ground-breaking book, On Death and Dying, died Tuesday evening, August 24, 2004, in Scottsdale, Arizona of natural causes. She was surrounded by her family and close friends. She was 78.
Her site is here
There is an obit in the SMH:
During her 50-year career she established herself as an expert in the field, with more than 20 books, countless lectures and workshops on terminal illness and death. But it was her outline of the five stages of death - denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance - that would make her known to everyday people.
I maintain that these are the five stages of pretty much everything.
"I really believe we saw acceptance on her face…" said longtime collaborator and friend Dr David Kessler.
I pray that meeting Fergie was not the high point of her life…

In ancient times, people treated death with awe...

awwwwwwwwwwwww.
Yes, I recognise that quote, but as usual, only because it was used in a comedy. Can't rightly recal which one - sort of done in Flying High (thats "Airplane" for our US vuewers), but it was also done somewhere else.
Funny how my first thought when I saw her quote was "Hey, she ripped that off from a comedy".
