About this Death Cafe
My baby brother died at 18 months, when I was 15 years old. As a result, I have a long history of death and dying. As a church musician, in my 30's I struggled with leading music at funerals. As I grew in my faith and understanding, it is now a gift I can do for people. After taking many courses, workshops, conferences and training about Palliative Care, I learned about Death Café. I think there is a great need, to provide an opporunity for people to be able to have somewhere and someone to talk about their grief, about death, and about dying. Our society, has a great uncomfortableness about talking about death. Death Café can be that place, if a person has a need to talk about it.
