Stars of the hit TVNZ and Netflix reality television series The Casketeers — Francis and Kaiora Tipene are New Zealand's favourite funeral directors. With their famous humour and big-hearted personalities, they are changing the way we think about death and grief. Life as a Casketeer reveals how Francis and Kaiora grew up in families rich with love and tikanga Maori in Northland, and how they came to work in their often misunderstood profession. It is also a book about tangihanga, tikanga Maori and above all a love story for whanau, for culture and for each other.
