Author and former funeral home operator Stan Swan to speak at Scio library



Author, radio broadcaster and former funeral home operator Stan Swan to make presentation at Scio Library
About ‘Tales Unleashed’……
Cohocton, N.Y.- Knowing as a youngster that he would become involved in funeral service, Stanly Swan, formerly of Andover, has always been fascinated by tales of the unknown, past lives and the ‘unusual’. Growing up in the fifties and sixties, he enjoyed reading the great stories of the legends Alfred Hitchcock and Rod Serling. After 35 years in funeral work, Stan penned his memoir book Undertakings of an Undertaker, true stories of being laid to rest in 2015.
Swan will hold a community discussion on Saturday November 2nd at 10:30 a.m. at the Scio Library.
In his new fiction short story book Tales Unleashed, you’ll be astray in fog, sent back in time, projected onto the ‘next level’. You’ll experience the chill of a fortune teller, a pumpkin weeping for home, a crow who stands guard over his domain, a haunted belfry and being ‘lost’ at the drive-in. 

Stan speaks extensively to service groups and libraries about the changing death care industry and has appeared on many local and national talk shows and pod casts (Swan is also a former radio broadcaster).  Stan invites you to his writing site; myundertakings.blogspot.com, where you will find some interesting stories, posted each and every week. He can be reached at  undertakings@inbox.com.
