About this Death Cafe
Libby says, “I believe there is great opportunity for healing at the end of life, and so I’m excited to bring Death Café to Orcas. To have those important conversations, to sift out one’s most cherished ideals and communicate them to loved ones and neighbors, to examine the finite nature of one‘s time here can make life so much more sweet in the now and more comfortable in the end. Please come out and join in the conversation!
About Libby Garcia, organizer
In her career as an RN, Libby has worked in both emergency and hospice, where she became passionate about alleviating end-of-life suffering. She volunteers for Whatcom Alliance for Health Advancement assisting people in drafting advanced directives and normalizing end-of-life discussions. Her grandmother Helen Buchan, also a nurse, was at times the only medical care on the east end of Orcas, where she lives with her dad Bill and silly old dog Parker. She plays a banjo ukulele and is furthering her education about life by owning an old boat.
