About this Death Cafe

These events are free and held at a local cafe.

The holidays are a time when feelings, memory, and hope intersect. What does that look like for us and how do we experience the joy and peace of the season when our hearts are breaking?

Come, grab a coffee, meet your community, and have a conversation.

About Christine Smith

Hello, I’m Christine — a thoughtful and inquisitive death doula, often recognized as the one with the dog (I work with a therapy dog).

My mission is to support individuals in experiencing a good death — whatever that means to them. This may involve collaborating on care planning, providing companionship, facilitating conversations around death and grief with loved ones, guiding legacy projects, or offering compassionate support to those left behind.

With a background in healthcare and education, I bring both professional knowledge and lived experience to my work. I received my training as a death doula through the Home Hospice Association, recognized leaders in the field of end-of-life care.
