This was an awesome event. About 30 people attended and it lasted around 90 minutes. Cake and coffee were served. The space and tables were decorate. People in their 20s to people in their 80s. It was interesting how the discussion evolved around losing other people and pets as opposed to talking about our own deaths. Not sure if this means more people need support around grief or are we just that adverse to facing our own demise?
Omaha is becoming more death curious! Lots of ppl asking for another so looking at planning one for November possibly.

What a beautiful and heartfelt conversation we shared together during this months Death Cafe!

Each person's presence and willingness to share made our gathering truly special.
We explored so many meaningful topics during our session:

Our most recent Death Café was held on September 16th, and we had 5 people in attendance. This month, it really felt like we all connected because of our experiences working with death and dying. It led us to our main topic of self-care, and how we can make this a priority in our work. We also talked about the relationships we make in this work, and how much of an honor it is to sit with people in their last moments, or sit with others in their grief afterwards. It is a privilege to be included in this part of their life, and we are forever ...

While few were in attendance, Skully had a wonderful time as always learning about the difficulties and moral questions of dying for the disabled and the incarcerated in the United States. Complex questions of assistance in dying was also mentioned with these groups.
The affogato was legendary, especially with oreo crumbs and hot fudge!

Central Houston's September 2025 Death Cafe
Around 20ish folks attended this past weekend. This month the dialogue focused on thoughts about the afterlife, spirituality, and life philosophies, some of the most personal and potentially contentious of all the topics that come up at Death Cafes. Despite this, I'm grateful for the diversity and respect that emerged. Thank you all for sharing in and building this space.
Below you can find links to various things mentioned during the dialogue.
If there is something missing from my list you'd like to add and easily share with the group, just leave a public comment in the box at ...

While there were few people in attendance, unique cultural views of death and burial were learned and explored. Focusing on China, unspoken complexity of dying was learned as land isn't allotted to cemeteries, creating a digital tombstone that can be cleaned and maintained to ensure the ancestors are remembered and cared for. "Skully" the skeleton cat was happy to be present; the atmosphere was welcoming and the mocha was delicious!
