Highcliffe Death Cafe
A write up of Highcliffe Death Cafe
By Lis Horwich
Highcliffe Death Cafe had first meeting Monday evening. One new member came along, two others had hope to join us, but looking forward to welcome them at later meetings. We were a small group, but had some very interesting chats. One member had just lost her Mum before Christmas and could tell us her about her beautiful passing, just the way her Mother had hoped for at the age of 88. It was uplifting to hear about the passing of a close relative, when the death was expected and plans were in order. Sadness is still felt, but the funeral can be hosted as a real celebration for life. So let’s us all promise ourselves to talk with our elderly relatives and ensure they get these matters in order. It might also be time for us to look into our own final affairs!
