About Dianne Baker:
I am a relative newcomer to The Sunshine Coast in BC. I have a long term fascination with holding space for challenging and meaningful conversation about impostant topics. I lived in Manitoba and hosted five Death Cafes with two other women over a period of several years.
I welcome you to come to sit, sip and have morsels of good cake, as you engage in topics to feed the soul!
What brings you to Death Cafe?
I was at my grandfather's bedside in the hours before he died, and sang at my father's bedside with my siblings in his final hours.
I have been interested in the topic of death and dying for years and appreciate the commitment to safe space and open minds that Death Cafe offers.
