So what did we talk about? So much – and the following gives you a flavour:
- How difficult it was to talk about planning for your own death with your children when they thought you were being morbid
- Whether you should really ‘sort out all your ...

Death Café – West Norwood
6th May 2026

Around 15 people attended this DC facilitated by 3 people. Themes that emerged from the discussion included:
· The importance of place - somewhere to go and remember the person who's died. It might be a in cemetery or it can be where ashes were scattered.
· Seeing death as a continuation, not an end, following a faith tradition. There is grief but a sense of happiness knowing the person is somewhere else.
· Death anxiety as a child - needing to come to terms with mortality as a fact of life. Described fear as ‘the severest form of loneliness’. But at the ...

Death Cafe write up: Myrtle Beach Death Cafe at Chapin Memorial Library
Posted by BLLLINK on May 2, 2026, 1:13 p.m.
Well, we had a room that accommodated ten and we had seven people attend - so it was pretty good considering the fact that again it's a beach location.
Cordial, engaging conversations with cake, coffee and tea made the two hours pass oh so quickly.
We're looking forward to our May Second Saturday and Fourth Tuesday Death Cafes at Chapin Memorial Library.

Genevieve and Jim opened the April Death Cafe with 12 of us participating from UK, USA and Canada. Topic included feelings related to Death, feelings of peace and satisfaction when in service, when interacting and connected. Questions about accessing help, asking for help, and Near Death Experience. Speaking and listening was most of our time. And a fair amount of time being silently present.
