About this Death Cafe

I met Lizzy Miles at a conference about 5 years ago and she told me about Death Cafes. I have wanted to host one since then, but life's unexpected events kept preventing me from doing so until recently. When I heard that Jon had died, it spurred me to make it happen as a tribute to him.

No sponsors.
