Skor cake and conversation
A write up of Reston Death Cafe
By chriscross
The back room of the Dennis County Cafe was the location of the first ever death cafe in Reston Manitoba. This is a small prairie town and like our other cafes most people who attend know each other. This is just the way it is in small places and in some ways it makes it very comfortable and just like a trip to the coffee shop...except this time we talk about death. We had good small group discussions and followed up with larger group discussions and sharing. We enjoyed and appreciated the hospitality from the folks at Dennis County and the Skor cake literally was "to die for"!! Feedback was excellent and this event will definitely happen again in future. Each death cafe sends out ambassadors for conversation and education regarding death and deathcare in our communities and families. Very positive experience!
