Super Sweet February Tucson Death Cafe





Tucson’s Death Café February edition was super sweet! We had the magic number of 17 attendees and many new faces. Among them were two women who traveled from Tempe/Phoenix, a pair of Minnesota snowbirds hoping to start Death Cafe in their hometown, and someone working to bring Death Café to the local deaf community. Subjects that came up for discussion were: “How do we talk about death to our family and friends?” “What is the status of new cultural movements such as home funerals, green burials, and aid-in-dying?” “What is relief grief? Is it a common experience and “okay” to feel relieved – for any reason – such as in the case of an unhealthy relationship or the extreme suffering of a loved one - when someone dies?” A rich, diverse, and passionate group! Thank you to everyone who attended and spread the word. In March we are moving to the regular monthly slot at Bookman’s of first Wednesday’s at 5:30 – 7:00pm. *REMINDER: if you were on the email list prior to January 2016 I don’t have that so send me a line with your address. I send out only 1-2 emails a month.
