About this Death Cafe

The Lewiston Death Café is a welcoming, informal gathering where people come together to talk openly about death and end-of-life topics. There’s no agenda or presentation - just thoughtful, respectful conversation in a supportive setting with some coffee, tea and cookies. It’s a space to share perspectives, ask questions, and explore a topic that touches us all but is often avoided.

Please join us at the Lewiston Recreation Department’s Senior Center on May 26th, at 10:15 a.m. for our own Death Café.

 

Attendees are encouraged to sign up in advance by calling (207) 513-3059 or emailing scote@lewistonmaine.gov

John has lived and worked in Germany, then Hungary for several years before retuning to the US, where he worked in senior management at an Augusta based community mental-health agency for over 20 years. Eight years ago, John decided to change careers to work in HUD low-income housing, specifically with senior citizens and people with disabilities.
