Morris walks the reader through a thorough downsizing/move for senior citizens with keen insight. Anyone who has ever participated in a geriatric moving knows the many challenges and decisions needed to be made. And quite often during a very stressful period. The author takes you by the hand and walks you through each room with careful inspection, detail and humor. I thought the "workbook approach" was a keen idea because it helped to organize the move ahead-of-time, right down to a decision on the 100+ butter tubs. Whether you're the senior organizing the move or the family member assisting, it's well worth the price of $10.95 for the time it can save you. We'll all need this book someday, it's just a matter of time!

I work for a retirement community in San Antonio and this has helped many of my residents sort through the big job of downsizing. This is especially helpful if there is no family or if the family cannot help in the transition.

Moving for Seniors is a valuable resource that makes a very intimidating process manageable. You can tell the author has a wonderful sense of humor as she guides the reader through difficult decisions. This workbook is a great tool for both seniors and their children/caregivers. As a hospital social worker/discharge planner I quickly identified the value of this book. It's a "must have". Betty Wilson, MSW

The book was helpful in planning for downsizing our possessions after more than 20 years in our home.

I was disappointed as this was mostly common sense and pages of lists. I would have liked more ideas about how to downsize and still keep a sense of familiarity and order. If you are not organized this might help or you might find all the lists too overwhelming. For a slim paper workbook I think it is overpriced.
