About Sallyann:
I am a clinical social worker, acupressurist and certified death doula. I've worked with many people over the years on their pain, grief and loss issues. I look forward to providing space for people to talk freely about death and end of life issues in a safe and supportive environment
What brings you to Death Cafe?
I think being open about death brings much more purpose and joy to our lives. Cultural and societal taboos about discussing death can create unnecessary stress and strain on our relationships and upset our inner harmony. I'm happy to be part of the movement that respects honesty and individuality when discussing our thoughts on death and dying.
What would you like your legacy to be?
Lived life to the fullest and honestly. Respectful of others. Joy till the end:-)

It was a small and intimate gathering, with one person attending her first Death Cafe. We discussed recent losses, and how loved ones can really organize to be part of the death, which is meaninful for all. And how Zoom helps for those far away. We also discussed the aging process, our own mortality and shared our bucket lists.
